A barefoot child sits on the floor, violin tucked under the chin and bow drawn across the strings, an upturned hat resting nearby for coins. Pavel Filin builds the young musician from thick, energetic strokes, with warm yellows and deep reds glowing against a shadowed brown background. This original oil painting balances tenderness with a quiet sense of hardship, the light falling softly on the boy's absorbed face. A moving portrait to view at Art Gallery Teplice.
