Karl Burman seenior

Karl Burman is rather known as the creator of tender landscapes and spirited cityscapes. He has left of himself an impression as of an independent observer, who despite historical conditions has been able to find his own niche, in which to remain neutral and continue with his calling. Working man was in the painting of the 1950ies one of half-obligatory themes. Still, also here Karl Burman has been able to remain himself and has chosen the manner, how to handle the obligatory in the direction which is pleasant for himself personally. Karl Burman’s “Kündjad” is actually a wave to the times gone by. Here cannot be found a trait of the Soviet era mechanized agriculture and front-ranking machinery. On the diagonally composed picture these are the horses and thoughtful farmers, who are heading for the core of the work.
