About this work

In the painting, two figures are engaged in archery in a grassy field. The figure on the left, dressed in white, holds a bow and arrow, aiming at a target. The figure on the right, also in white, stands with their hand on their hip, observing the archer. The targets are positioned in front of them, with a fence and trees visible in the background. The scene is depicted in a naturalistic style, with an emphasis on the figures and their surroundings. The artist's use of color and composition creates a sense of depth and atmosphere. This painting is reminiscent of the work of artist Károly Ferenczy.
