colarusso: can someone help me identify artist or read correctly the name. Battle at Grunwald. Wow, if you have the original, it is worth millions of Canadian dollars.

looks like T. (or F.) Kobierczy. However I didn't find such surname on Polish surname map so not sure if such surname really exist.

maybe T. Konierczy

PennBoy: Konierczy no such surname as well. Besides that what word would it be derived from?

I can PennBoy: maybe T. Konierczy jyjkhfa: looks like T. (or F.) Kobierczy. The ending of the surname looks like -czy indeed. There is no such surname on the list of Polish artists: http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kategoria:Polscy_malarze http://pl.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Kategoria:Polscy_malarze&pag efrom=Jach+Pawe%C5%82+Wies%C5%82aw%0APawe%C5%82+Jach

I wonder if becksi is a relative ;) I like Poles who can channel their romanticism into sth tangible like that Beksiński fellow, rather than high-faluted and floating ideals.

coming from Montreal there is a good chance that this is Jewish, no?
