"Manor house sketch – Lusławice" is a c. 1924 sketch by Polish Symbolist painter Jacek Malczewski. The sketch depicts a manor house in Lusławice, Poland, with two figures seated outside, likely the artist's family. The house is rendered with soft, translucent washes of color, characteristic of Malczewski's later style, creating an atmospheric and dreamlike quality. This sketch likely captures a moment of quiet contemplation in the artist's personal life.
