"Spirit of water", Alfred Kubin

Another recognized representative of symbolism, known for its "dark" symbolism. In his works, horror got along with irony, anxiety, and fear - with sarcasm. Constant hallucinations, persecuting the artist, only increased the degree of gloom in his paintings. Images of fear of the future, motives of hopelessness, hopelessness brought the artist world fame.

Canvas Cubes "Spirit of Water" - one of the brightest reflections of the artist's dark symbolic fantasy. By merging the irrational world with the real, Cubin succeeded in translating his main motive in the film: the impotence of mankind in front of the natural elements.
