Bust of Florian Ziemialkowski 1922 Stanislaw Roman Lewandowski

“The Bust of Florian Ziemialkowski” (1922) – a lawyer, participant in the January Uprising of 1863–1864, ambassador of the Galician Sejm in Lviv (1867–1869), the first president of the city after Galicia gained autonomy (1871–1873), member of the State Council in Vienna, Minister for Galicia in the Austrian government (1873–1888) – shows S.R. Lewandowski’s return to “academic realism” in his mature work of the 1920s. The artist’s realistic intentions can be seen in the reflection of the momentary essence and the exact reproduction of the individual features of the portrait. F. Ziemialkowski’s will to act, determination and sharp mind are reflected in the high, clear forehead, the tight lips, the expressively modelled cheekbones and forehead, and the focused, penetrating gaze. The sitter’s upright posture and proudly raised head emphasise his self-confidence.
