SPANISH PRISONERS 1972

"Spanish Prisoners" is a 1972 painting by Armenian artist Yervand Kochar (1899-1979). The work features a bold, stylized figure with a spear and a helmet, perhaps a representation of a Spanish warrior, with a shadowy figure at their feet, possibly a prisoner. Kochar's work is known for its vibrant colors, dramatic composition, and expressionistic style. This painting exemplifies his unique vision with its strong use of form and its exploration of themes of power and conflict.
