  1. "Spring," Michalina Janoszanka, before 1926.

    Janoszanka (1889-1952) was a Polish painter, although remembered today mostly as being the model and muse for another artist, Jacek Malczewski. Her solo output in oils is mostly undistinguished still lifes and florals, but it's her few glass paintings that really stand out in their use of color.

    Here we have a mixture of folk art influences with the Young Poland movement and maybe some surrealism in the blend. It's really impossible to assign to any single art school. Her glass paintings are few but are her best, most original work, and sadly get very little notice.

    From the National Museum, Krakow.
