Lot description

technique: colored drypoint on paper | 105 x 75 mm | signature: bottom right | framed under glass Lot description This colorful drypoint by Bohuslav Reynek, one of the most important Czech graphic artists and poets of the 20th century, depicts an autumn scene, which is characterized by his mystical and intimate view of nature. The motif of a butterfly on an apple, surrounded by fragile lines and melancholic colors, evokes Reynk's typical lyrical approach to natural cycles and the changes of the seasons. The artist masterfully combines realism with abstraction and spirituality, which gives the work a special poetics and depth. Reynka's works like this are often seen as meditations on the transience and beauty of simple things.
