Životopis

Alojz Glod (known as Adam, his pseudonym) was born in 1907 in the Czech town of Nový Bohumín and died in 1952 in Veľká Lomnica, where he is buried. While visiting the High Tatras, especially Veľká Lomnica, the painter liked the place so much that he decided to settle there for good. Just like Berecz, he started to paint the Tatra sceneries, peaks, panoramas and tarns in various seasons. He made Veľká Lomnica his home, where he also married the daughter of the local evangelical priest. They had two children together. According to verbal tradition, he was commercially relatively successful painter. He painted almost exclusively alpine themes (and occasionally popular-folk genres), where he placed more emphasis on spirited veristic account of the captivating alpine scenery rather then on formal innovation. However, his name as an author is not listed in Czechoslovak, German nor Polish lexicons of painters (although he often painted in the field on both Slovak and Polish side of the High Tatras).
