    Don’t know the artist, so I had to look them up for my own curiosity.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teodor_Axentowicz

    Teodor Axentowicz (1859 – 1938) was a Polish-Armenian painter and university professor. He was also the rector of the Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. As an artist, Axentowicz was famous for his portraits and scenes of Hutsul life, set in the Carpathians.

    That style is quite surprising (to me, at least) for 1883. Almost expressionist, very forward looking.

    Thanks for the share!

    The necks on the geese are perfect. It’s a small thing but you can practically hear them honk.
