Landscape with Two Animals 1915

"Landscape with Two Animals" is a 1915 work by Russian artist Pavel Filonov. The black and white drawing, rendered in a simplified, geometric style, depicts a landscape with a building, trees, and two animals in the foreground. Filonov's interest in the natural world and his use of bold, graphic lines are characteristic of his work, which was heavily influenced by the avant-garde art movement of the early 20th century, particularly Cubism and Futurism. This piece showcases his distinctive approach to depicting the world around him, with its emphasis on abstraction and simplified forms.
