About the piece

Painted in 1890 by Jaroslav Věšín, this charming realist work depicts a quiet moment of affection between a young couple in rural dress. A young horse stands prominently in the foreground, serving as the 'silent witness' of the title, while a herd grazes in the hazy distance beneath a vast, luminous sky.
