Protiveň 1943

"Protiveň" is a 1943 painting by Slovak artist Arnold Peter Weisz-Kubínčan (1898-1944). The painting features a stylized depiction of a peasant woman, likely a farmer, in a field, carrying a bundle on her back, and leading a pig. The woman's figure is simplified with sharp angles and bold colors, a characteristic of Weisz-Kubínčan's Cubist-inspired style. The painting likely reflects the artist's interest in rural life and folk traditions. It captures the simplicity and hardship of the rural lifestyle in a striking and abstract manner.
