Tobias with a Harpy 1909

"Tobias with a Harpy" (1909) by Polish Symbolist painter Jacek Malczewski depicts a scene of an angel, possibly the Archangel Raphael, with a harpy. The harpy, a mythical creature with the head and torso of a woman and the body of a bird, is positioned in front of Tobias, who is not visible in this cropped image. This work is characteristic of Malczewski's symbolist style, which often explored themes of myth and allegory, with a focus on symbolism, spirituality and introspection.
