He was recognized as a full member of the Academies of Arts of Rome (where he spent most of his artistic life), Berlin, Stockholm, Paris and Turin, and at international exhibitions the artist's work constantly received the highest awards.
In addition to painting, the painter spent a lot of time on decorative painting, creating murals and large-scale panels for palaces and temples. In particular, he was one of the authors of the mural of the Cathedral of Christ the Savior in Moscow.
The best masterpieces of Siemiradzki's work are now kept in museums in Russia, Ukraine and Poland.
