Biography
Biography
He was born in Grabownica Starzeńska. He studied in Kraków, where he was a student of Jan Nepomucen Głowacki and Józef Richter in Warsaw. In 1837, by gaining a scholarship Schouppé began studying at the Accademia di San Luca, returning to Warsaw in 1840. He took part in a number of foreign travels, and after going into retirement in 1897 he moved out of Warsaw. Nearly every year he visited the Tatra Mountains. His Tatra landscape paintings are characterised with idealism. He also painted religious paintings and had been illustrating with Juliusz Kossak. He died in 1899, in Krynica-Zdrój.
