Lűschwitz–Koreffski Arnold

Lexicon of foreign painters in Macedonia between 1850-1950

Arnold Lűschwitz–Koreffski (1869 - 1930), German

Born in Berlin in 1869 died in Berlin around 1930, Arnold Lűschwitz -Koreffski was a German / Polish painter and illustrator who traveled through the Balkans and the Orient in the early 20^th century. He was probably a war painter, since he generated many portraits of German and other military portraits. He visited Macedonia, once in 1903, where he made portrait of Albanian rebel in Thessaloniki (in collection of the author of this lexicon), around 1912 during Balkan Wars, painted in Macedonia and Bulgaria, mainly rebels and soldiers and again during the Great War, where he made cityscapes of Skopje and portraits of German soldiers located in Macedonia.

About Me

This lexicon is a result of my 15 years long period of researching & documenting the personalities and the artworks of the foreign painters, sculptors, illustrators, and photographers having visited different spots of the geographic territory of Macedonia, there having created works of art there over a 100-years long period i.e. between 1850-1950. Their presence and artwork in the Macedonian milieus represent a notable cultural heritage to the international linkage of the ethnic Macedonians as well as to all the ethnicities living in the picturesque territory of Macedonia and the cultures of modern-day countries spread over parts of the geographic territory of Macedonia. Witnessing the artistic contributions of the foreign artist, we are proud of their Macedonia-themed creative works and experiences. I believe that their artworks, having been inspired and created over the vast region of Macedonia, unite us all in these challenging times, and under the facts and the values of the artistic beauty.
