Babin zub

The picture shows Babin zub - one of the most famous peaks on the Stara planina Mountain, a rock of a specific shape similar to a tooth. The composition is centrally placed, and the dominant vertical is created by the cloud that covers the rock, below which is a lonely house surrounded by beech forest. The foreground is dominated by violet "kaćuni" - saffron flowers that form a path that leads to the house and the forest. Among the flowers is an earthen pitcher in the lower right corner. The painting symbolizes the awakening of nature, the inevitable passage of time and the change of seasons. It suggests the former presence of man, people who are no longer living, or who are leaving the villages below the Stara Planina.
