Franciszek Ksawery Lampi, also known as
Franz Xaver Lampi (22 January 1782 – 22 July 1852), was a
Polish Romantic painter born in Austria of ethnic Italian background. He was associated with the aristocratic circle of the late
Stanislaw II Augustus, the last Polish king before the foreign
partitions of Poland. Lampi settled in
Warsaw around 1815 at the age of 33, and established himself as the leading landscape and portrait artist in
Congress Poland soon after
Napoleon's defeat in Russia.
