I seek information on an artist, perhaps a part time artist onlly, named Micheno stanislaw. We own a painting by him, purchased in Krakow in 1989, entitled Golicyjodie Jevuroleum.
Through research, I have learned the meaning of the title of the painting and what it shows, but I have not been able to find out anything about the artist and I wonder if he appears in any list of painters or any other source of information and whether he is still alive and lives in Krakow.
Many thanks for any help you can give. Paul
