I seem to have a particular fondness for artists whose skill was rather limited, whose work somehow manages to display sophistication and naïveté at the same time. Jabłoński (1801, Rzeszow, Poland - 19 February 1876, Lviv, Ukraine), of whom I'd never heard and for whom I can find no other information, fits that description. Stiff, inconsistent, but rich in detail and occasionally brilliant in color, his work is the sort of thing I always find charming.
