The artwork titled “Anka,” created by Wilhelm Sasnal in the year 2001, belongs to the Pop Art movement and falls under the genre of portraiture.
In the artwork, a woman with a short bob haircut is portrayed in a profile view, gazing towards the left. The artist employs a minimalist style with lucid and bold lines to depict the subject’s features, creating a striking contrast with the muted background. The woman is adorned in a red sleeveless top, and she is depicted with a lit cigarette held between her lips. The background showcases an interior setting with a doorway leading to another room, emphasizing a sense of depth within the composition. The use of cool and warm tones alongside the simplistic yet evocative depiction highlights Sasnal’s unique approach to portraiture within the Pop Art tradition.
