Waiting 1995

"Waiting" is a 1995 artwork by Petros Malayan (1927-1997). The painting depicts a solitary figure standing by a window, their back to the viewer, gazing out at a blurry landscape. The figure's posture and the subdued color palette convey a sense of contemplation and perhaps, as the title suggests, waiting for something. The artwork's style is expressive and suggestive, typical of Malayan's oeuvre, and invites viewers to ponder the inner life of the subject and the nature of their anticipation.
