The portrait photograph of Ewelina, née Cohn Grossman. One of the two signatures on the reverse contains a misspelt first name. The general notation made by Halina of Baruch: "Aunt Grosmanowa" would mean, in this case, that this is the sister of her grandmother Miranda née Cohn (i.e. her cousin's grandmother; "Grosmanowa", without the first name or the "aunt" inference, also appears in the description of the Kolobrzeg studio photograph MPOLIN-A25.1.77 - in that photograph Grossmanowa is about fifteen years younger). Agnieszka Wróblewska's detailed handwritten signature wrongly indicates the name "Stefania" because Stefania (Grossmanówna, not Grossmanowa) is the name of the daughter of the woman depicted. | Ewelina Cohn was born in 1856 in Warsaw as a daughter of Mojżesz Cohn and Hinda Fajersztajn. She married Jan Grossman (1851-1924), an industrialist from Częstochowa, who was, among other things, a co-owner of Jan and Stanisław Grossman's Coconut and Wooden Buttons Factory, the largest factory ofthis type of buttons in the Kingdom of Poland. The Grossman House in Częstochowa was considered to be one of the centres of the town's artistic life. The Grossmans belonged to the Society for the Propagation of Knowledge (see the entry written by Juliusz Sętowski from the dictionary "Żydzi Częstochowscy" [Częstochowa Jewish], edited by J. Sętowski, Częstochowa 2020, https://encyklopedia.czestochowa.pl/hasla/grosman-grossman-jan, accessed on 15.07.2021), and the Grossman family sat on the boards of two sections of the Jewish Charity Society: Support for Poor Midwives and Protection for Girls. | The Grossmans lived in Częstochowa until 1914 and then moved to Warsaw. Jan Grossman died in 1926, and Ewelina, née Cohn, died six years later. Their grave has been preserved in the Jewish cemetery in Okopowa Street in Warsaw (see: https://cemetery.jewish.org.pl/id_3513/size_normal/photo.jpg, accessed on 9.09.2021).
