Teodor Grott began his training at the prestigious Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow, where he had the opportunity to learn from great masters, including the renowned Leon Wyczó?kowski. His passion for art led him to explore various European cities such as Paris, London, Brussels and Italy, enriching his artistic vision with each visit. Despite his travels, Krakow always remained his home and the place where he developed a large part of his career.
Throughout his life, he exhibited his works in important institutions, such as the Society for the Promotion of Fine Arts in Warsaw and the Society of Friends of Fine Arts in Krakow. His specialty was watercolor, a technique with which he was able to capture portraits, nudes, landscapes, still lifes and architectural scenes, always with a unique sensitivity.
His commitment to art went beyond creation. He was a key figure in the artistic community of Krakow, becoming president of the Association of Visual Artists of the "Ten" group and the Union of Visual Artists of the city. His talent and dedication earned him numerous awards, among them prizes awarded to the most outstanding artists of the city.
