In 1899, the Society of Friends of Fine Arts in Kraków organized the first exhibition of his landscapes of the Tatra Mountains and the region of Podhale. Between 1900 and 1908 he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków under the tutorship of Józef Mehoffer, Leon Wyczółkowski, Jan Stanisławski and Józef Pankiewicz.

In 1908, he joined the Society of Polish Artists. In 1929, he was awarded the Golden Medal of the Universal Exhibition in Poznań. Four years later, he was also awarded by the Polish Academy of Skills for his works. During the Invasion of Poland in 1939 he fled to Hungary, where he became an active member of several underground organizations. Arrested by the Gestapo, he was sent to the Mauthausen-Gusen concentration camp where he was murdered.
