Fryderyk Pautsch

Fryderyk Pautsch (22 September 1877, Deliatyn - 1 July 1950, Kraków) was a Polish painter; associated with the Young Poland movement.

He enrolled at the Academy of Fine Arts where his instructors included Leon Wyczółkowski and Józef Unierzyski.

When he returned, he settled in Lwów, but paid frequent visits to Pokuttia (southeast Galicia), where he painted scenes featuring the Hutsul people and their culture.

He exhibited frequently, under the name "Friedrich Pautsch", notably at the Große Berliner Kunstausstellung of 1914, where he presented seventeen works.

There, he was one of the founders of an artists' movement known as "Świt" (Dawn), which included the monumental sculptor, Mieczysław Lubelski.
