Analysis

[edit]

Vytautas Kasyulis is one of the few Lithuanian artists with an international reputation. In 1944, he moved to Austria and Germany. He taught at the School of Arts and Crafts (Werkkunstschule) in Freiburg. In 1948 he settled in France. In the painting Woman with the artist, he skillfully creates shading, a sophisticated harmony of colors, and the relaxed atmosphere in the room. The work exudes decorative flair, loss of viability, smooth contours of objects, and a fondness for bright, warm colors. His works re-create daily life, balanced between fantasy and reality. The theme of the woman is one of the most delicate topics that reflected in all his work.[1]
