Oil painting on canvas „Sobótka” – Poland, ca. 1960, unidentified artist
We present an exceptional oil painting on canvas titled „Sobótka”, painted around 1960. This extraordinary work of Polish folk art, by its name and content, refers to the pagan traditions of Kupala Night – a festival of fire, water, and love. The painting emanates warmth, magic, and folkloric symbolism, perfectly capturing the spirit of ancient Slavic beliefs and rituals.
The canvas is kept in a style characteristic of Polish painting from the mid-20th century. The artist – unknown by name, but certainly gifted with great talent and a sense of color – rendered in it the atmosphere of a Midsummer bonfire, around which figures in traditional costumes intertwine. The composition is dynamic, yet remains within a harmonious, subdued palette of earth and fire tones.
The work comes from the period of People's Poland, when folklore and folk art experienced a renaissance, serving as a carrier of national identity and simplicity of beauty. The painting perfectly fits into collections of naïve art, amateur painting, and ethnographic memorabilia. It is also an excellent interior decoration in rustic, vintage, or boho style – full of emotions, history, and local spirit.
Condition: good for its age, with natural patina of time. Original canvas, no overpaints. Framed in a simple wooden frame.
Dimensions: approx. 60 x 50 cm (with frame).
Uniqueness: A one-of-a-kind original – no reproductions or prints. Ideal for folklore enthusiasts, collectors of Polish post-war art, and seekers of original items with soul.
