A print of “Earth (Ziemia)” by Ferdynand Ruszczyc on your wall
Leaden clouds, a strip of brown earth and a lone ploughman against the storm - Ruszczyc's Earth is a painting about strength and perseverance, understood by anyone who has built something from scratch. A print of Ruszczyc's Earth suits the office of a family business, a chief executive's office, a boardroom, a loft in greys and concrete, and a house with dark wood and steel. It works as a gift for an entrepreneur, a farmer or an engineer. We recommend a wide horizontal format in the full crop, which keeps the power of the sky above the small figure of the ploughman; for a large wall in a conference room wallpaper is worth considering. Matt Dibond emphasises the raw, earthy texture of clouds and field without reflections. Ruszczyc wall art in any size - enter the dimensions in the artMonte configurator and we will print it exactly for your wall.

Earth (Ziemia)
About the artwork
A pair of oxen with a plough and the ploughman walking behind them climb to the top of a hill, and above them towers an enormous stormy sky that takes up most of the canvas. Ruszczyc painted the picture in 1898 at his family home of Bohdanów in the Vilnius region, giving everyday work on the land an almost cosmic dimension: man is small, and the elements of sky and earth are mighty. The canvas, today in the National Museum in Warsaw, is regarded as the artist's most important work and a symbol of the Young Poland vision of nature.
