This haunting painting, likely from the late 20th century, is a characteristic work by Polish artist Zdzisław Beksiński. It depicts a solitary figure with a smooth, featureless head wearing a large ruff, their hands obscured by layers of folds. The hands manipulate what appears to be a white substance, which could symbolize decay or the impermanence of life, typical themes in Beksiński's work. The muted palette and stark, surreal imagery are a hallmark of his distinct style, often categorized as Surrealism or Dark Art.
