Still life with a cup 1929 - 1930

Mikuláš Galanda's "Still life with a cup" from 1929-1930 is a minimalist still life drawing that showcases the artist's signature geometric style. The artwork features a large orange shape, possibly representing a tablecloth, on which sit stylized geometric representations of a cup, dice, and a rectangle. The composition is carefully constructed, with the shapes interacting in a way that suggests a sense of balance and order. This work, created during the artist's brief but prolific career, reflects the broader artistic trends of the early 20th century, embracing abstraction and a focus on formal elements.
