"Exile" is a 1909 painting by Polish artist Jacek Malczewski. It depicts a man seated at a table, looking introspective, with a glass of alcohol and a plate of fish in front of him. The painting is part of a triptych, and is thought to be a symbolic representation of the artist's own feelings of isolation and alienation. The painting's somber tones and the man's melancholic expression create a sense of sadness and loneliness. Malczewski was known for his use of symbolism and allegory, and "Exile" is a powerful example of his artistic style.
