Poplar (Illustration to Taras Shevchenko's poem Poplar?) 1958

"Poplar" is a pen and ink drawing created by Ukrainian artist Hryhorii Havrylenko in 1958. The artwork depicts a woman standing against a dark background, her long skirt billowing in the wind, and possibly an image of a poplar tree in the background. The artwork is a captivating example of Havrylenko's masterful use of line and shading. The artist's signature is in the lower right corner, a testament to his stylistic approach and the artwork's authenticity. The drawing evokes a sense of melancholy and introspection, perhaps referencing a specific poem by Ukrainian writer Taras Shevchenko, who often featured poplar trees in his work.
