A painting by Stanisław Baj, depicting a face emerging out of a black background. The artist nearly sculpted the wrinkle-marked face of a man using strong, expressive brush strokes. The blue eyes are also a prominent accent. The character in the image is not anonymous. The painter portrayed his neighbours, living in his family village. He brought out the essence of their nature by emphasising the psychology of the characters. The artist created a series of such portraits.
