    Description

    Large framed oval print of Jozef Pilsudski who was a Polish statesman who served as the Chief of State (1918–22) and First Marshal of Poland (from 1920). He was considered the de facto leader (1926–35) of the Second Polish Republic as the Minister of Military Affairs. From World War I he had great power in Polish politics and was a distinguished figure on the international scene. He is viewed as a father of the Second Polish Republic re-established in 1918. When World War I began in 1914, Pilsudski's Legions fought alongside Austria-Hungary against Russia. In 1917, with Imperalist Russia faring poorly in the war, he withdrew his support for the Central Powers and was imprisoned in Magdeburg by the Germans. The print measures 19.5" x 13.5" and is framed in a 22.5" x 16.5" frame. Antique period frame with some gold finish loss and chips. Great condition for its age !!
