Artur Markowicz (1872-1934) was a Jewish Realist painter and graphic artist born in Cracow, Poland. Between the years 1896 and 1903 he studied art in the cities of Munich, Berlin and Paris. He also spent a year in Jerusalem, 1907-08. Markowicz’s Jewish scenes and character-studies display strong originality, with influences of Symbolism and elements of Expressionism.
