Józef Brandt was a Polish painter during the later 19th and early 20th century and his claim to fame was the battle scenes he so intricately painted. Today’s is the last in a series of five posts dedicated to this prolific artist.
An Amazing Artist
Unfortunately I can’t find a whole lot about the artist himself. He was friends with another military artist Juliusz Kossak who had a monumental influence on Brandt’s decision to pursue art full time. I’m quite glad he did, his body of work tells stories of life & battle in a land far away. Be sure to check out Pt. 1, Pt. 2 & Pt. 3 too.
Similar Style
I probably mention it every week, but if you like Brandt’s narrative style you might also enjoy the work of Frederic Remington. Before you head there, be sure to check out the rest of the Brandt series, Pt. 1, Pt. 2 & Pt. 3
