About the piece

Created around 1910 by Antoš Frolka, this oil painting is a luminous study of Central European tradition. The subject is depicted in a detailed folk costume (kroj), featuring a complex lace headdress and colorful embroidery, all rendered with thick, expressive brushwork that creates a tactile sense of presence and heritage.
