[[Image:Gottlieb-Jews Praying in the Synagogue on Yom Kippur.jpg|thumb|Day of Atonement, done in Vienna in 1878.]]
'''Maurycy Gottlieb''' (1856 - 1879) was a Polish-Jewish [[painter]].
At the age of twenty, Gottlieb won a gold medal from a [[Munich]] [[art]] competition for ''Shylock and Jessica''.
<blockquote>
As a Polish-Jewish artist, Gottlieb is unique. As a Polish painter, he is considered to be the best of his generation. [http://www.eeweems.com/maurycy_gottlieb/]
</blockquote>
The painting "Day of Atonement" ''is one of three masterpieces on religious themes painted by Gottlieb which reflect the personal conflict of the artist as to his identity as a Jew, a Polish citizen or a man of the Enlightenment... The painting is based on the artist's memories of the synagogue in his childhood home of Drohowicz. '' [http://www.tamuseum.com/museum/masters/mauritzio.htm]
