Exhibited in Krakow in 1913 and in Lvov a year later, a striking landscape by a prominent turn-of-the-century artist. Kramsztyk referred to French post-impressionism. Landscape themes inspired, for example, by the painter's stays in France and Spain, remained one of the key ones. Painted with extraordinary color intuition, the view of an orchard is reproduced in materials about the artist. The atmospheric composition, saturated with light, shows mastery of painting technique and energetic brush duct.
