About work
The feeling of longing is an inseparable feeling for every living soul. In people, the greatest feeling of longing is found in relation to the land where they were born and raised, the place where “blood was shed”. The same scene is shown in this picture. We can recognize that the artist depicted the evening time by the fact that the image is a little blurry and the sun's rays are weak. The picture shows the landscape of the village. The central composition depicts a stone-dirty street, where you can see a young man walking along the street. In the background, the conversation of village women, tall green trees and low houses with thatched walls are depicted. The viewer, looking at the picture, cannot but feel in his soul longing for this calm life.
