Ptaki 1921

"Ptaki" (Birds) is an oil painting created in 1921 by Polish artist Tadeusz Makowski, known for his expressive and often-surrealist style. The painting features two birds, rendered in a loose and gestural manner. The bird on the right is more defined and almost appears to be in motion, while the bird on the left is more abstract, with its form blending into the background. The work's palette is dominated by earthy tones with hints of green and red, reflecting the natural environment of birds, while showcasing Makowski's mastery of color and brushwork.
