About Rywka Regina Aleksandrowicz

Wolf's wife Regina (1853-1940) founded a wholesale-and-retail stationery, paper goods and art supplies store on the corner of Dluga and Basztowa Streets in Krakow that became the premier source for generations of Krakow schoolchildren and young Polish artists. When a struggling artist could not pay for needed sketch paper or other supplies he often received them for free and, in recompense, sketched or painted a portrait of Regina's young daughter, Roza Aleksandrowicz (1886-1973). Many such portraits exist, one of them is hanging at the top of the stairs leading to the main dining room of the renowned Krakow restaurant Hawelka in Krakow's main square, the Rynek Glowny
