Wincenty Wodzinowski began his studies in painting from 1880 to 1881 at the Warsaw Drawing Class under W. Gerson; then, from 1881 to 1889, he studied at the School of Fine Arts in Cracow under W. Luszczkiewicz, L. Loeffler, F. Cynk and J. Matejko, among others; and from 1889-92 at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich under A. Wagner. In 1896 he settled in Swoszowice near Cracow and became a professor of painting at the Higher Courses for Women at the Cracow Technical and Industrial Museum. He befriended I.Korwin-Milewski, a well-known collector and patron of the arts, and from 1892 to 1907 worked mainly on his commission. In the earlier period he painted portraits, later mainly folk types and genre scenes from the life of a village near Krakow.
