About the piece
Created around 1870 by Polish artist Aleksander Kotsis, this oil study depicts a young boy in simple rustic clothing. The work is characterized by its expressive brushwork and a muted, earthy color palette, typical of Kotsis's realistic portrayals of rural life in the late 19th century.
