About the piece
Created in 1916 by Jēkabs Kazaks, this painting is a hallmark of Latvian modernism. The artist employs a stark, vibrant red background to highlight the somber, grounded figures of three elderly women, whose faces and hands convey a deep sense of dignity and shared experience through expressive, simplified forms.
