The artwork titled “Sausage Maker Came to Lodz” was created by Kazimir Malevich in 1914. It belongs to the Naïve Art (Primitivism) movement and is considered a poster. The dimensions of this artwork are 34 x 53.9 cm.
The artwork is divided into two segments. The left segment features a rotund man with a long beard, clad in a red shirt and striped pants, standing prominently in the foreground, waving his hat. He appears cheerful and robust. Behind him, a landscape of rolling hills stretches out, populated with groups of people that likely represent soldiers or laborers. The sky above is dynamic with curving lines and clouds, giving the scene an energetic feel.
The right segment depicts a contrasting scenario. Amid a similarly hilly landscape, a man in a brown suit, appearing dejected, walks away while holding his backside. He is observed from a distance by a smaller figure dressed in red, which connects this scene to the left segment. The background features a line of small, stylized structures suggestive of a village or town, implying a departure from civilization into the barren fields.
The overall composition employs bold colors and simple, cartoon-like lines, characteristic of Naïve Art, to convey a narrative with social or political undertones.
