"Głowa Starego Górala" (Head of an Old Highlander) is a notable woodcut by Władysław Skoczylas, a prominent Polish artist, teacher, and folk art enthusiast, whose work significantly contributed to the Polish art scene in the early 20th century. Born in 1883, Skoczylas became a key figure in the development of Polish woodcut art, merging traditional folk motifs with modernist expressions. His artistry is characterized by a deep reverence for Polish folklore, the scenic beauty of the Polish landscape, and the daily life of its people, especially the highlanders from the Tatra Mountains.

This particular piece, "Głowa Starego Górala," exemplifies Skoczylas's mastery in capturing the essence and character of his subjects with remarkable detail and emotional depth. The artwork reflects not only the physical attributes of an elderly highlander but also conveys a sense of the rugged, stoic spirit inherent to the mountain people of Poland. Through his adept use of the woodcut technique, Skoczylas achieves a striking contrast and a rich texture that bring out the intricate details of the highlander's facial features, attire, and the surrounding environment, encapsulating a moment of serene dignity and profound connection to nature and tradition.

Władysław Skoczylas's contributions to Polish art are not limited to his woodcuts. He was also instrumental in the education sector, teaching and inspiring a new generation of artists. Moreover, his efforts in promoting folk art played a significant role in the preservation and appreciation of Polish cultural heritage. "Głowa Starego Górala" stands as a testament to Skoczylas's artistic vision and his enduring legacy in the realm of Polish art, embodying the timeless beauty and resilience of Poland's cultural and natural landscapes.
