Boy musician 1928

"Boy Musician" is a 1928 pastel drawing by Zinaida Serebriakova, a prominent Russian artist known for her portraits and figure studies. The drawing captures a young boy, possibly a street musician, playing a stringed instrument. His posture and expression suggest concentration and passion for his craft. The light and airy use of pastels creates a sense of movement and dynamism, typical of Serebriakova's style, which often reflected the artistic currents of her time.
