Smutný den [A Sad Day] (1942) depicts hands holding a white cloth in front of a face, a clear allusion to recent events – the untimely death of her artistic partner Jindřich Štyrský, and the Nazi orgy of violence following the assassination of Reinhard Heydrich – a personal and a collective tragedy which were the cause of great pain to Toyen.
