Feliks Franić or Franicz (born 14 January 1871 in Maków, died on 8 January 1937 in Kraków) was a Polish painter, lawyer, and a judge of the court of appeal. His father, a professional officer serving in Galicia, was a Croat, hence the atypical surname which often involved spelling problems (one of the Franić family tombstones bears its surname ending with "ch"). Franić mother, Anna von Victorin, descended from a family with Italian-Austrian roots which had lived in Poland for generations. She died two months after giving birth. Feliks, brought up by his father, grew up in Maków Podhalański. He
