From the collection of Hungarian National Gallery
Cskt-nagy tarpatak a tatraban is a 1904 oil by Tivadar Csontváry Kosztka, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Hungarian National Gallery.
The painting depicts a serene landscape with a prominent mountain range in the background. The mountains are rendered in dark, muted tones, while the sky above is a soft blend of blue and white hues. In the foreground, a grassy hillside is dotted with small, white flowers and a few trees. A winding path leads the viewer's eye through the scene, disappearing into the distance. A small, white building is nestled among the trees, adding a touch of human presence to the otherwise natural setting. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of tranquility and contemplation.
