Description

Author: Kalymov Mukhit Galimovich. 1931-2002.
In the work, the image of a simple Kazakh woman is shown sincerely and impressively. In the foreground sits a woman in black clothing with a white scarf on her head, her expression calm. Her face reveals inner turmoil and resilience. In the background is a portrait of a man and a baby in a cradle. This symbolizes the woman’s husband, who has gone to the front, and the family left behind. Through the composition, the artist profoundly conveyed the fate of women during the war years, their hopes and longings.
