More about this artwork

"Refugees" (1943), a poignant work by the Slovak artist Cyprián Majerník, captures the harrowing plight of displaced people during a time of war. Rendered in a deep, earthy palette, the painting portrays a group of somber figures, enveloped in thick, textured layers of paint that seem to echo the weight of their difficult journey. Riding in a rudimentary horse-drawn cart, these figures are set against a backdrop of swirling, chaotic strokes, mirroring the turmoil and instability that forced them into exile.Majerník’s expressive brushwork imbues the scene with a sense of urgency and despair, emphasizing the resilient yet vulnerable human spirit. The piece is not just a depiction of historical events; it remains eerily relevant today, as it resonates with the ongoing struggles faced by refugees around the world.
