Blind Man 1934

Mikuláš Galanda's "Blind Man" (1934) depicts a man in profile, his hands raised in a gesture of reaching. The figure, rendered in a soft, muted palette, is set against a blurred background, suggesting a state of introspection or contemplation. The image evokes a sense of longing, vulnerability, and a profound connection to the unseen. The artist's use of color and light emphasizes the subject's blindness, creating a powerful and evocative portrait. The work exemplifies Galanda's signature style, characterized by lyrical realism and a focus on human emotion and experience.
