About the piece

Created in 1904 by Polish master Stanisław Wyspiański, this pastel double portrait depicts the artist alongside his wife, Teodora Teofila Pytko. The work is celebrated for its vivid use of color, notably the brilliant red of the wife's traditional beads and headscarf, contrasted against a deep, textured blue background that showcases the artist's command of the pastel medium.
