Abstract
The artistic activity of Tadeusz Kuntze, nicknamed ‘Taddeo Polacco’ (Zielona Góra 1727 – Rome1793) has not as yet been properly evaluated, despite him having been one of the most prolific painters active in Rome from the mid-1760s to the 1780s. An attempt at placing Kuntze’s creative accomplishments in a broader context of artistic interconnections and influences has been made. Among the latter, it is Kuntze’s bonds with the Spanish colony in Rome that are of special importance, particularly the impact of his art on the formation of young Francisco Goya. A separate, however not less important issue is the influence of the Polish artist on the Madrazo family of painters whose members played a key role in 19th-century Spanish art.
