Czesław Wasilewski (1875-1947) probably using the pseudonym Zygmuntowicz, Baranowski, Wysocki, it is a Warsaw painter popular in the interwar period, the author of genre paintings inspired by Kossak, Brandt, Chełmoński, Wierusz-Kowalski and Fałat. He was self-taught, although in 1911 he signed up to the Warsaw School of Fine Arts, but his studies are not known. Perhaps he went there (1913-1917) to the studio of Wojciech Kossak, for whom he later prepared the underpainting for paintings in the early twenties. He participated in the exhibition in Lublin (1922), Warsaw (1925, 1926, 1927), Katowice (1926), Częstochowa (1927), Gdynia (1929), Kalisz (1931) and Poznań (1928, 1931). He mainly painted sleigh rides, hunting trips, patrols, moose and wild boars in the forests. He rarely painted flowers and still life.
