From the expert assessment by PhDr. Rea Michalová Ph.D. of the world and lived times, as well as imaginative ideas and dreams. The essence and meaning of Bauch's canvases became the expression to which he subordinated everything. until I conquered them by painting. In the painting in question, Jan Bauch masterfully captured the delicate beauty of a young woman in a semi-nude who decorated her hair with a living flower. The author's "ruffled", expressive handwriting seems to literally reflect the words once uttered by sculptor August Rodin: "The body is a model shaped by passion." Although Jan Bauch underwent purely classical training under Emil Dítě, Vratislav Brunner and Max Švabinský, his oeuvre is anything but a reflection of the classic view of depicting the seen world. Over the course of time Bauch's work featured many different positions, but the subject area essentially remained the same. Women are one of his frequent subjects. This portrait of a woman is eloquent proof of the artist's attempt at strongly expressive expression, which asserts itself in his work from the second half of the 1930s. Typical features are the rich contrasting colour, dramatic play of light and shadow, energetic brush strokes, and succinctness. He used similar color and dynamic painting techniques in his 1942 painting "Belveder". Dedication on the back: "In a friendly reminder of the war years of April 19, 1945, Jan Bauch."
