Study of a woman in a scarf composed on a diagonal 1938

Mikuláš Galanda’s 1938 pencil drawing, "Study of a woman in a scarf composed on a diagonal", is a captivating example of Cubist-inspired portraiture. The artist’s use of geometric shapes and fragmented forms creates a sense of depth and movement, while the diagonal composition adds to the dynamic energy of the piece. This study, created just a year before his death, demonstrates Galanda’s artistic maturity and the influence of Cubist principles on his unique style.
