EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "En l absence du proprietaire (In the Owners absence)" captures a poignant scene from early 20th century Russia. In this painting by Vladimir Yegorovich Makovski, we are transported to a grand dwelling where a young servant, donning his apron and holding cleaning tools, slumps lazily on a chair while indulging in a cigar. The composition exudes an air of tiredness and restlessness as the weary servant seeks solace during his master's absence. The dimly lit room is adorned with exquisite furniture, including an ornate tablecloth and an elegant screen that adds to the ambiance of solitude. A solitary lamp casts its warm glow on the scene, emphasizing the youth's isolation. Makovski skillfully captures not only the physical exhaustion but also hints at deeper emotions such as loneliness and disinterest. Through this artwork, he subtly explores themes of leisure, pleasure, and even touches upon one of the seven deadly sins - sloth. This remarkable piece invites viewers to contemplate societal dynamics within historical context while appreciating Makovski's mastery in portraying human emotions through art. It serves as a reminder that even amidst opulence and luxury, individuals can experience moments of weariness and introspection.
