- The oil painting “Portrait” from 1955 is executed in the spirit of geometrization, a key characteristic of Lazar Vozarević’s modernist approach.
- The central motif is a geometrically constructed human head, bald and shown in semi-profile, dominating the pictorial space.
- The eyes are rendered as dark, hollow forms, expressionless and distant, silently observing the space ahead.
- A cool blue palette, combined with white and dark tonal areas, enhances the sense of unnatural coldness and detachment.
- Line functions as the primary structural element, dividing the face into distinct geometric planes.
- The painting reflects Vozarević’s exploration of the human figure as an abstract, psychological, and spatial construct rather than a realistic likeness
