The turn of the 19th century was a golden age for Polish art. The publication features about 130 masterpieces of painting from this era between nineteenth-century decadence and a new beginning, and describes its roots in Polish history, culture and nature as well as the close connections with wider European art scenes. Polish painting around 1900 carries us into a world of myths and legends, into dream-like landscapes, old traditions and customs, into the depths of the human soul. In a nation without its own state until its independence in 1918 Poland was partitioned between Russia, Prussia and Austria-Hungary a young generation of artists emerged to renew painting. Thus they created a common identity, while at the same time joining forces with the European avant-gardes.Artists: Teodor Axentowicz, Olga Bozna?ska, Józef Che?mo?ski, W?adys?aw Czachórski, Julian Fa?at, Wojciech Gerson, Aleksander Gierymski, Gustaw Gwozdecki, Vlastimil Hofman, W?adys?aw Jarocki, Konrad Krzy?anowski, Jacek Malczewski, Jan Matejko, Józef Mehoffer, Edward Oku?, Józef Pankiewicz, W?adys?aw Podkowi?ski, Witold Pruszkowski, Ferdynand Ruszczyc, Kazimierz Sichulski,W?adys?aw ?lewi?ski, Kazimierz Stabrowski, Jan Stanis?awski, Henryk Szczygli?ski, W?odzimierz Tetmajer, Wojciech Weiss, Stanis?aw Witkiewicz, Witold Wojtkiewicz, Leon Wyczó?kowski, Stanis?aw Wyspia?ski
