Triple portrait 1933

"Triple Portrait" is a 1933 painting by Kazimir Malevich, a leading figure in the Russian avant-garde movement. The work features three faces, two of which are partially obscured, in a bold and somewhat abstract style. Malevich is known for his pioneering role in Suprematism, an art movement that emphasized geometric forms and non-representational art, and his work often reflected his interest in color and form. This portrait, although showing recognizable human features, appears to be influenced by Malevich's abstract tendencies. The use of flat planes of color and simplified lines suggests a departure from traditional portraiture, perhaps reflecting a shift in his artistic approach or a new way of seeing the human form.
