Preparatory Work for Murder in the House: Study Drawings of Jakub Schikaneder

National Gallery Prague – Trade Fair Palace, Dukelských hrdinů 47, Prague 7 

August 1, 2023 - November 5, 2023

The painting Murder in the House (1890), represented in the permanent exhibition Art of the Long Century, is one of the foremost masterpieces of Czech painting of the 19th century. The artist Jakub Schikaneder (1855⁠–⁠1924) depicted in it the unusual theme of the violent death of a young woman, found by her neighbours in the courtyard of an old house. The preparatory sketches on display, showing the onlookers and the dead woman, give us a glimpse of the artist’s conception of this outstanding work and a better understanding of what still makes this painting so attractive and mysterious for audiences today.
