About the piece

Painted around 1900, Lajos Csordák’s 'Šestnástka' captures the quiet rhythm of rural life with soft brushstrokes and a muted, atmospheric palette. Figures rest in the shade of a traditional cottage while chickens wander the yard, evoking a sense of timeless pastoral peace characteristic of the artist's Spiš region landscapes.
