Ska, created in 1888, is a moving reflection of the artist's ability to capture the essence of the human being through a style that combines the influence of impressionism with a strong burden emotional. In this painting, Bozna? Ska uses a palette of warm and terrible colors that contribute life and depth to the central figure. The gypsy woman, whose face is presented in a splendid close -up, is the epicenter of the work and the container of a personal story that is open to the viewer's interpretation.
The composition is of a powerful simplicity. The woman is in a dark background that not only accentuates her figure, but also creates a significant contrast that enhances the luminosity of her skin and the wealth of her dress. Dark and curly hair, framed by a striking handkerchief, adds a visual texture that seems to vibrate with energy. The woman's gaze is intense, full of mystery and magnetism, inviting the observer to connect with her inner world. This emotional interaction reflects the ability of Bozna? Ska to infuse life to their subjects, approaching them from a place of empathy and understanding.

Ska not only paints the exterior of his subject; His technique suggests a psychological depth, where each brushstroke reveals characteristics of the personality and the social context of the gypsy women.
The work is in the context of the rise of the representation of oriental and ethnic issues in the European art of the nineteenth century, where artists sought to capture the fascination for cultures considered exotic. However, instead of perpetuating stereotypes, Bozna? Ska enters a more authentic and sensitive representation of the figure that portrays. There is no sense of cartoon in his work, but rather a celebration of the humanity of his subject, a testimony of the artist's own interest in cultural diversity.

Ska, contemporary of important artistic movements and regular collaborator of other prominent figures of art, had a career marked for its exploration of portraits and the representation of women.
