He had good technique, but there was something missing from them. It's hard to explain it. If you look at the painting you added to the thread, the technique is fine, but the painting itself is lifeless.
This one shows it better:
Technically, the painting is really good. But it's just lifeless. I can't explain it.

All of the people and animals have their heads bowed, no tracks in the snow, just kind of a washed-out look to whats happening in front of the super-detailed building. It's rather depressing, actually.. Drab, gray colors, and the subject (the building) seems to dominate the people walking by it. It's kind of prophetic, actually...
Who? Nonsense. Even your link doesn't talk about Poland. If you talk about Germans being exterminated By Polacks, give then real proof of it, even a historical link. Because otherwise it's bullshit.
.”under Polish pressure the Germans in the southern and eastern districts were subjected to oppressive treatment. On Aug. 19 1920 the Poles felt strong enough, indeed, to make an attempt to seize the country by force. On all sides bands of Poles, chiefly recruited from Congress Poland, usurped authority. A number of Germans were forcibly carried across the frontier into Poland, and many were killed. Several weeks elapsed before it was possible to quell this rising and restore order…It had been suggested by the Entente that non-resident Upper Silesians of the German Reich should vote outside Silesia, at Cologne. Germany protested against this, and her protest was recognized as valid by the Entente. In January 1921 the date of the plebiscite was fixed for March 20 1921.
An immediate revival took place in the use of terrorism by the Poles, especially in the districts of Rybnik, Pless, Kattowitz, and Beuthen. It reached its climax in the days preceding the plebiscite. Voters from other parts of the German Reich were frequently refused admission to the polls; sometimes they were maltreated and even in some instances murdered; and houses where outvoters were staying were set on fire… The day after the plebiscite the Polish excesses recommenced, and from that date onwards continued without interruption… Practically all the towns voted for Germany… the first days of May witnessed a new Polish insurrection which assumed far greater proportions than the former one. Korfanty had secretly raised a well-organized Polish force which was provided with arms and munition from across the border, and was reinforced by large bodies of men from Poland…
By June 20 the British troops had again occupied the larger towns, while the Poles had the upper hand in the rural districts. As a result of the difficulties in paying his men and providing them with food Korfanty now lost control over his followers. Independent bands were formed which plundered the villages, ill-treated the Germans, and murdered many of them.”

This article appeared in the Polish newspaper Die Liga der Grossmacht in October, 1930:
A struggle between Poland and Germany is inevitable. We must prepare ourselves for it systematically. Our goal is a new Battle of Tannenberg. However, this time, a Tannenberg in the suburbs of Berlin. Prussia must be reconquered for Poland, and Prussia, indeed, as far as the River Spree. In a war with Germany there will be no prisoners…

We need to dump the CIA in the ocean at this point. We can do it humanely. Tell them we have a super-secret mission to finally destroy Donald Trump. Load them up. Just dump them in the Atlantic.
Then we can let the DIA take over the lead role in intelligence gathering with the knowledge of what happened to their predecessors for failure.
I've been spending spare time going back and listening/reading these type of stories since the other day and the pieces fit the puzzle perfectly. The CIA is about to get rekt.
Did you catch the part where once he retired he was hired by a Clinton ally?

Seems you are totally against Trump on this issue. Face reality, Smitty. You can have your ideas, but Trump doesn't share them with you.
I'm totally against Trump on most issues, but so what? Trump is merely a means to an end, he's the Rob Ford of the Free World, a sabot thrown into the works, and very deliberately so.
One does not have to agree with a wooden shoe on all issues, to throw it into the machinery in disgust. I wasn't even the one who threw the wooden shoe, I am simply enjoying watching the machinery grind its gears.
If it catches fire? Oh well, let it burn; pass the marshmallows, eh wot? Better yet; fetch the gasoline.
