anna bilinska 1857-1893




this extraordinary painter grew up in the ukraine. she studied in russia, warsaw, and paris. in 1889 she received the gold medal at the paris exposition universelle. i now plan to visit warsaw to see her work!
there has not been a film about her though she must have known many great artists and may even have sat for modigliani.
