About the piece

Created in 1907 by Polish artist Henryk Szczygliński, this oil painting is a masterclass in atmosphere and mood. It depicts a lone halberdier patrolling a wintry path, where the stark white of the snow contrasts brilliantly with the deep blues of the night and the heavy, dark trunks of the trees, offering a sense of historical mystery and quiet solitude.
