About the piece
Created around 1890 by artist Ľudovít Pitthordt, this oil painting captures a quiet, contemplative moment as a young boy holds a single apple. The work features a rich, autumnal palette of deep browns, ochres, and reds, with expressive brushwork that lends the piece a timeless, nostalgic character characteristic of late 19th-century European genre painting.
