Windy Day is a 1908 oil by Leon Wyczółkowski, held at National Museum in Kraków.
This painting, titled "Windy Day", depicts a landscape with a prominent tree in the foreground. The tree's branches are bare, and its trunk is thick and gnarled. In the background, there is a body of water, possibly a lake or sea, with waves crashing against the shore. The sky above is filled with clouds, and the overall atmosphere of the painting is one of movement and energy. The brushstrokes are bold and expressive, with visible texture on the canvas. The colors used are muted, with shades of green, brown, and gray dominating the palette. The painting has a sense of depth and dimensionality, with the tree and water creating a sense of layers.
