Hlava dívky (Slepá, Hlava ženy) 1916

"Hlava dívky (Slepá, Hlava ženy)" is a 1916 oil painting by Czech artist Josef Capek. The work is a portrait of a woman's head, rendered in a simplified, almost geometric style. The subject's face is obscured by a dark band and the background is a deep, almost black red. This painting, created during a time of war and uncertainty, exemplifies Capek's use of simplified forms and somber color palettes, creating a sense of both isolation and quiet introspection.
