More about this artwork

** Delve into the quaint village atmosphere captured by Cyprián Majerník in his painting titled “Yard” from 1935-1936. This artwork offers a glimpse into the simple, yet evocative setting of a rural yard under the cloak of night. At the center, a pale goat, with its distinctively alert and forward-posed stance, draws immediate attention. Emerging from the shadowed entrance of a rustic house, the goat adds a lively essence to the scene, its white coat contrasting sharply against the deeper, muted tones of the background.The painting is framed by elements quintessential to a pastoral lifestyle: a textured brick wall to the left and a sturdy wooden fence encloses the foreground, while the silhouette of a calm horse, partially visible, adds depth to the right side of the composition. Above, a crescent moon hangs in the sky, illuminating patches of the yard and enhancing the serene, nocturnal mood.Majerník’s style combines bold shapes and vibrant, though darkened, colors to underscore the organic beauty and simplicity of rural life. The broad strokes and somewhat abstract forms reflect the influence of Expressionism, focusing on emotional resonance over detailed realism. “Yard” invites viewers to appreciate the quietude and charm of countryside settings, capturing a moment frozen in time through the artist’s distinct and emotive lens.This painting not only highlights Majerník’s unique artistic voice but also serves as a nostalgic reflection on the timeless nature of rural landscapes.
