Bay 1924

"Bay" (1924) by Boleslas Biegas is a haunting depiction of a mysterious building on a rocky shore. The building, with its tall, slender towers and windows that seem to stare out at the viewer, is shrouded in an eerie stillness. The dark trees and the dark, churning waters of the bay only add to the sense of unease. The use of light and shadow creates a dramatic contrast that further emphasizes the otherworldly atmosphere of the painting. The artwork is a prime example of the artist's surrealist style.
