Michal Studený was a part of the generation of artists, who sought to keep the Slovak art scene in touch with the emerging progressive avant-garde movements in the world during the 1960s. Working a lot with collage and illustration, he sometimes deliberately approached "grand" art concepts from an intuitive, almost naive point of view. His trademark was putting paint on canvas straight from the tube.

Studený's artistic "exile" (and self-searching experience) after temporarily moving with family to the town Revúca is recorded in this simple, but gracious landscape piece.
