Summer. Painting II from triptych. – (Mikalojus Konstantinas Ciurlionis) Previous Next


Artist:

Date: 1907

Museum: M. K. Čiurlionis National Museum of Art (Kaunas, Lithuania)

Technique: Tempera

Another play of M. K. Čiurlionis of nature repetition - this time the clouds repeat the nature. On a lonely high hill, stand long trees on top, looking like an outstretched hand. On this hill we can also see traditional Lithuanian wayside crosses which M. K. Čiurlionis studied. Beyond the hill are arable fields (the motif for village life) that end at a forest. Beyond the forest, the clouds in the sky echo the silhouette of the hand made by the trees on the hill. The nature and the sky greet each other.
