Parlem de Pintura...
Antoni Kozakiewicz (Kraków, 13 de juny de 1841 - Kraków, 3 de gener de 1929) va ser un pintor polonès. El 1857 va començar els seus estudis a l'Acadèmia de Belles Arts de Cracòvia amb Władysław Łuszczkiewicz, entre altres, graduant-se el 1866. Poc després es va traslladar a Viena on va seguir la seva formació a l'Acadèmia de Belles Arts rebent una beca el 1871 amb la qual va viatjar a Munich, on va seguir estudiant a l'Acadèmia d'Arts de la ciutat. Allà va compartir estudi-taller amb Franz Streitt i Aleksander Kotsis amb qui també va realitzar diverses expedicions per explorar els entorns i els paisatges de muntanya. El seu èxit que ràpidament va assolir el van consagrar a Alemanya romanent en aquesta geografia la quasi totalitat de la seva vida. I si bé va tornar a Polònia el 1900 per tal de provar fortuna, el seu escàs ressò el van desmotivar per tal d'establir-se a Varsòvia. La seva obra va ser de temàtica històrica, de gènere i paisatgística sent el seu estil profundament realista. El seu germà Piotr Kozakiewicz va ser escultor. Antoni va morir a Cracòvia el gener de 1929.

Parlem de Música...
Stanisław Moniuszko (Ubiel, 5 de maig de 1819 - Warszawa, 4 de juny de 1872) va ser un compositor i director d'orquestra polonès, autor de cançons, òperes i ballets farcits de patriotisme i de temes folklòrics polonesos així com d'una interessant i abundant obra religiosa. Va néixer en una família szlachta el 1819, a l'extrem est de la Polònia dividida i va mostrar, des de petit, un gran interès per la música. El 1837 va començar a estudiar composició a Berlín amb Karl Rungenhagen, qui també el va instruir en la direcció coral. Després de la seva estada a Berlín, va obtenir un càrrec com a organista a Wilno. Durant aquesta època, va establir amistat amb el novel·lista Jozef Ignacy Kraszewski i el dramaturg i satirista Aleksander Fredro, que van estimular l'interès de Moniuszko en la música dramàtica. Al voltant de 1840, va començar a compondre de manera intensiva, produint les seves primeres òperes i altres obres per a l'escena, així com cantates sacres i profanes i nombroses misses. Al llarg de la seva vida, Moniuszko va viatjar sovint a Sant Petersburg, on la seva música va gaudir d'una bona acollida. Allà, Mikhaïl Glinka i Aleksandr Dargomijski van fer palesa la seva admiració pel talent de Moniuszko. També va conèixer a Mili Balakirev i Modest Mússorgski, i el seu estil va ser apreciat per Hans von Bülow. Va ser mentor, entre altres, de César Cui. Va morir a Varsòvia el juny de 1872.
