Odo Dobrowolski (1883–1917) was a Polish painter.
Life
He was born in Chernivtsi as the son of Józef Dobrowolski, an official of the Gubernium of Galicia, and Eugenia Wittich. Odo took his secondary education in Lviv. He studied at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków, most likely as an independent student. During his years in Paris, between 1908 and 1909, he was guided by Jan Styka. Afterwards, he took a short stay in Munich before continuing on to Lviv. In Lviv, he created a large oil painting depicting the town square, which was put on display at Gabriela Zapolska's confectionary "Dworek" by 4 Akademicka Street.[1] In 1911–12, he returned to live in Paris. In 1912, he took part in a presentation of drawings at the Leopolitan Literature-Art Grouping. During the Russian army's occupation of Lviv, Odo, with the affirmation of the military's local censorship council, published his ten-piece portfolio of an auto lithography of "Lwów 1914-15" ("Lviv 1914-15", costing 30 crowns),[2] which achieved much popularity.[3][4] In June 1915, he moved to Kyiv, where he died in 1917.
