"Deception of Woman (Maryla Grossmanowa and Self-portrait)" is a notable work by the avant-garde Polish artist, writer, and philosopher Stanisław Ignacy Witkiewicz, commonly known as Witkacy. Created in 1927, this painting exemplifies Witkacy's unique approach to portraiture, which often incorporated elements of Expressionism, Surrealism, and his own philosophical theories. The painting is a double portrait featuring Maryla Grossmanowa, a figure from Witkacy's circle, alongside a self-portrait of the artist himself.

Witkacy was renowned for his exploration of the human psyche and the concept of individuality, which he often expressed through distorted forms and intense colors in his artworks. In "Deception of Woman," he delves into the complex interplay between identity and perception, possibly reflecting on the roles and masks that individuals adopt in social interactions. The juxtaposition of his own image with that of Grossmanowa suggests a dialogue or tension between the male and female subjects, which could be interpreted in various ways, including the exploration of gender roles or the duality of the self.

The painting is executed in oil on canvas, a medium that Witkacy frequently used to capture the emotional intensity and psychological depth of his subjects. His technique involved rapid, gestural brushstrokes that contributed to the dynamic and somewhat unsettling quality of his portraits. "Deception of Woman" is characteristic of Witkacy's mature period, during which he produced some of his most significant and influential works.

As an important figure in the Polish avant-garde movement, Witkacy's contributions to art, literature, and philosophy were significant in the early 20th century, and his works continue to be studied and exhibited internationally. "Deception of Woman (Maryla Grossmanowa and Self-portrait)" remains an important piece in understanding Witkacy's oeuvre and the broader context of European modernist art.
