The point of reference for his work is Polish art of the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. Created in the convention of realism, however, the paintings are very difficult to define, specify or describe. The mastery of the workshop, the constant, delicate color palette, the symbolic representation of content, while keeping compositional elements to a minimum and the painterly mysteriousness are the features that make no one pass indifferently by Janusz Lewandowski's paintings. Symbolism is intrinsically romantic and so are Janusz Lewandowski's paintings.
