The man with the bag 

"The Man with the Bag" is a painting by Russian avant-garde artist Kazimir Malevich. Created sometime before his 1915 "The Knife Grinder," this artwork depicts a peasant in a dark coat carrying a heavy sack on his back. Malevich's signature use of bold, simplified forms and vibrant colors creates a sense of movement and energy, characteristic of the Cubo-Futurism style that was influential in the early 20th century. This style combined elements of Cubism with the dynamism of Futurism, aiming to capture the energy of modern life. The painting's focus on a working-class figure reflects Malevich's interest in the everyday lives of ordinary people. The artwork is a testament to Malevich's innovative approach to painting, blending realism with abstract elements.
