      Stanislav Zhukovsky,1873-1944, was a Russian painter of Belarusian-Polish origin, one of the most prominent landscape and home interiors with "vintage" furniture painters of the late XIX. At the age of 17, Zhukovsky entered the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture, but the strip of professional success was broken with the advent of the revolution, which Zhukovsky took without much enthusiasm. He went to live in Warsaw, where he was caught in the beginning of World War II and the German occupation. In 1944, 71-year-old Stanislav Zhukovsky was arrested during the suppression of the Warsaw Uprising and died in a concentration camp.
