Graveyard at dusk is an oil by Czesław Pełczyński, held at National Museum in Warsaw.
This painting presents a somber scene of a graveyard at dusk, with a dominant color palette of dark greens and browns. The brushstrokes are visible, adding texture to the canvas. In the foreground, a few trees stand tall, while the background is shrouded in darkness. The artist's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and atmosphere, drawing the viewer's attention to the central trees. The overall mood of the painting is one of quiet contemplation.

Czesław Pełczyński painted the quiet before the storm—muted graveyards draped in violet dusk, where crooked crosses lean like tired sentinels.
