About the piece

Painted in 1912 by Elemír Halász-Hradil, this oil on canvas work captures a quiet, vulnerable moment of rest. Titled 'Chorá' (The Sick Woman), the painting is a superb example of early 20th-century Central European impressionism, utilizing a soft, muted palette and confident, visible brushstrokes to create a sense of stillness and atmospheric depth.
