This landscape painting with poplars bears symbolic Art Nouveau features dating from the turn of the century, when the painter, after studying in Munich and later at the Academy of Fine Art in Prague under Professor Pirner, completed Julius Mařák's landscape painting school. At that time his paintings started to regularly appear on the pages of Zlatá Praha and other periodicals, and he exhibited often in Prague and throughout Bohemia. In 1906 the Modern Gallery was the first to purchase one of his paintings. In 1911 he unfortunately became entangled in the Boronali Affair and insulted Bohumil Kubišta, which ended up going to court. He later avoided social events, even though he exhibited and there was significant interest in his work.
