Rajmund Kanelba (Kanelbaum) .........(2)
(Warsaw 1897 - 1960 London)
Rajmund Kanelba studied at the School of Fine Arts in Warsaw and in Vienna until 1923. When he arrived in Paris in 1925, he started to exhibit his work at the Salon d'Automne, Salon des Indépendants, Salon des Tuileries, and Salon de l'Escalier. He often visited Pont-Aven where he painted alongside other Polish artists. After Kanelba's work was exhibited in Bordeaux, he met the collector and art critic Marcel Bernheim at the Galerie Bernheim-Jeune. He was also introduced to Léopold Zborovski. Both dealers helped promote his work with his first important exhibition taking place at the Zborovski gallery in 1928. His works were then exhibited in Berlin, Warsaw, and Paris. During his career, he was commissioned to produce works for the French, Polish, and British governments. In 1955, he painted the portrait of the Queen Elizabeth II.
