More about this artwork

Cyprián Majerník’s evocative painting "Sleepwalkers" from 1942 immerses the viewer in a hauntingly surreal scene rich in emotion and mystery. In this enigmatic artwork, Majerník depicts a procession of figures seemingly moving through a dark, undefined landscape. The organic brushstrokes and the juxtaposition of shadowy greens and browns against the pale, ghost-like figures enhance the dreamlike quality of the painting.The group is led by figures on horseback, their expressions distant and disengaged as though lost in a trance or a deep sleep. The horses, equally spectral, blend into the dim surroundings yet stand out against the darker foliage behind them. On the ground, peculiar pink forms reminiscent of petals or leaves create a stark contrast with the somber tones of the scene, perhaps symbolizing fragility or the fleeting nature of life and dreams.Majerník’s work often explores themes of human emotion and the collective unconscious, and "Sleepwalkers" is a compelling example of his ability to weave complex narratives into his paintings. The figures, shrouded in their cloaks, move forward with a ghostly momentum, suggesting a metaphorical journey through the depths of the human psyche.
