Via Kottke: “Maria Prymachenko is one of Ukraine’s best-known artists. Known for her colorful, expressive, and ‘primitive’ style, Prymachenko won a gold medal for her work at the 1937 World’s Fair in Paris and Pablo Picasso is said to have remarked ‘I bow down before the artistic miracle of this brilliant Ukrainian’ after seeing her work. Prymachenko’s paintings featured animals (both real & fantastical), everyday Ukrainian people, food & agriculture, and themes of war & peace.”
