About the piece

Painted in 1916 by Elemír Halász-Hradil, this oil on cardboard work captures a somber moment following the passage of the war front. The artist utilizes a muted yet warm palette of ochres, dusty blues, and soft pinks to depict ruined structures and weary figures, offering a reflective and atmospheric look at early 20th-century European history.
