"Harpy in a dream" is a symbolic painting by Polish artist Jacek Malczewski, known for his introspective, often dreamlike style. The artwork features a reclining, winged female figure and a self-portrait of the artist holding a feathered wing, suggesting the artist's fascination with the supernatural and subconscious. Malczewski, born in 1854 and died in 1929, was a master of Symbolism, a late 19th and early 20th-century art movement, characterized by its use of allegory and suggestive imagery. "Harpy in a dream" exemplifies this, exploring themes of dreams, desire, and the power of the subconscious.
