Prometheus in chains 1905

"Prometheus in Chains" is a 1905 artwork by Frantisek Kupka that depicts the Greek myth of Prometheus. This drawing is a sketch, which Kupka made while developing his ideas for future paintings and graphic works. The piece was inspired by classical art with simplified, linear figures set against an abstract background. The artwork is a study in composition and contrasts Kupka’s early artistic style with the more mature styles he developed later in his life.
