Description of the work
The painting shows an outdoor studio scene or a brightly lit environment, rendered with a textured, dynamic brushwork of an expressionist cast, typical of the Czech-Swiss artist's style.

In the center of the composition stands a female figure seen from the back, identifiable as the painter herself, wearing a light robe and holding a colored palette in the left hand while turning toward the canvas or the easel positioned on the left. In the bottom right, seated on the ground in the grass, is a small child caught in a moment of play or interaction with the mother. The color palette is dominated by earth tones, greens, and ochres, with bright accents given by the robe and the palette.

The frame, if visible in the photo, is included in the lot as a pure gift from me and is not part of the sale, does not determine its value, and, due to its delicacy, is not insured. Consequently, any defects already present on the frame are not noted and any damage to it during transport will not be considered for claims or returns.

Notes on shipping and customs
The item is shipped from Geneva, Switzerland. For this reason, delivery times to EU countries may be slightly longer than usual due to normal customs clearance procedures.

I also remind you that, since Switzerland lies outside the EU customs area, import taxes, local VAT, and customs duties are the buyer's full responsibility and will be requested by the authorities of your country at delivery. I advise you to inform yourself in advance to avoid surprises. Alternatively to shipping, if you have the possibility, personal pickup in Geneva is always the option I prefer and strongly recommend, as it will allow you to eliminate shipping costs and ensure maximum safety for the artwork. If shipping is chosen, I will do my best to package it to protect the painting during the journey.
