About the piece

Created in 1903, this intimate oil study by the celebrated Polish painter Olga Boznańska depicts her father, Adam Nowina Boznański. The work exemplifies her masterly use of atmospheric tone and soft-focus technique, creating a hauntingly quiet and contemplative presence that is a hallmark of her Post-Impressionist style.
