About the piece
Created in 1879 by Polish artist Franciszek Żmurko, this work is a superb example of Academic sensualism and the dramatic use of chiaroscuro. The luminous treatment of the central figure's skin contrasts sharply with the brooding, deep shadows of the background, emphasizing the narrative tension of the scene. It possesses a heavy visual weight and a refined technique that makes it a standout piece for sophisticated interiors.
