Fotografik polski Jan Malisz o Carlu Larssonie
Journal Title: Biuletyn Biblioteki Jagiellońskiej - Year 2015, Vol 65, Issue
Abstract
In 1912 the Warsaw newspaper “The Illustrated Weekly” published an article about the Swedish painter Carl Larsson (1853–1919). The author of this text was a Polish Photographer, polyglot and art connoisseur Jan Malisz (1878-1928), who initiated the professional movement of photographers in Galicia. In 1908, he founded a branch of the Austrian Union of Photographers in Cracow, and in 1909, in Lviv. His artistic horizons also encompassed Scandinavian art, one of whose representatives was Carl Larsson. Malisz noticed in his paintings certain features which, after many years, have let Larsson and his wife Karin be recognised in Europe as the precursors of Swedish model manufacture and interior design. The phenomenon of the accuracy of Malisz's remark results from the fact that he was Larsson's friend for many years. The spiritual understanding between the Swede and the Pole was neither impeded by a significant age difference nor by their different political views, as Malisz was a socialist, whereas Larsson supported absolutism. The letters from Malisz to Larsson are kept in the University Library in Uppsala.
