The church, rendered in warm yellow tones with a red roof, anchors the composition, while small figures animate the surrounding landscape, creating a quiet sense of communal rhythm and daily life. A self-taught artist closely associated with the Croatian Naïve Art movement, Matija Skurjeni is celebrated for his poetic landscapes, subtle symbolism, and distinctive textural approach. This work exemplifies his mature style, characterized by layered color, rhythmic mark-making, and a contemplative atmosphere that transforms an ordinary village scene into a lyrical, almost dreamlike vision. Signed in pencil and numbered from a limited edition of 90. The colors remain fresh and balanced. Overall in excellent condition. A refined and evocative print by an important figure of Croatian Naïve Art, appealing to collectors of modern prints, folk-inspired imagery, and 20th-century Central European art.
