In the Mine 1928

"In the Mine" is a 1928 painting by Hungarian artist Janos Mattis-Teutsch (1884-1960). The painting depicts two figures in a geometrically abstract space, likely referencing the harsh environment of a mine. The stark colors and simplified forms create a sense of isolation and the monumental nature of labor, characteristic of the artist's Expressionist style. This work exemplifies the artist's exploration of the human condition and the societal impact of industrialization.
