"The Smith at Szeliwy, Poland" is a notable painting by the British artist Robert Polhill Bevan, created in 1912. Bevan, a prominent figure in the early 20th-century British art scene, was a founding member of the Camden Town Group and later the London Group. His work is characterized by its vibrant use of color and bold, simplified forms, often depicting rural and urban scenes with a distinctive modernist approach.

This particular painting captures a blacksmith at work in the village of Szeliwy, Poland, reflecting Bevan's interest in rural life and labor. The composition is marked by its dynamic use of color and light, which brings a sense of vitality and movement to the scene. Bevan's technique in this painting demonstrates his skill in capturing the essence of his subjects with a few, well-placed brushstrokes, creating a sense of immediacy and presence.

"The Smith at Szeliwy, Poland" is also significant for its historical context. Bevan traveled to Poland several times between 1909 and 1912, where he was deeply influenced by the local landscape and culture. These trips were pivotal in the development of his artistic style, as he began to incorporate more vivid colors and a greater emphasis on the geometric structure of his compositions.

The painting is part of a series of works that Bevan produced during his time in Poland, which collectively offer a unique glimpse into the rural life of the region during the early 20th century. Today, "The Smith at Szeliwy, Poland" is held in high regard for its artistic merit and its contribution to the understanding of Bevan's oeuvre and the broader context of British modernism.
