Talking kholkoz (Soviet farming collective) workers are depicted in this oil painting by Azerbaijani Soviet painter Asaf Jafarov. On the left, there is a young olive-skinned woman with large expressive almond eyes who is dressed in light colored dress and a brilliant light blue scarf with buta (floral motif that originated in the Sassanid dynasty) decorations. She holds a basket slight behind herself in her right hand and her other hand is reaching towards her mouth. She walks past a tree with a group of young women in colorful tops, headscarves, and dresses including pink, light blue, and royal blue. They are talking with a man in a dark flat mariner's hat and purple & black striped shirt. He is focused on talking with a woman in a flower-patterned teal dress cradling a light-colored basket in her left arm. Her back is turned to us. In the distance, three more women walk towards the group with baskets on their heads. Jafarov was an Azerbaijani Soviet painter who was awarded the title of People's Artist of the Azerbaijan SSR. He was born on July 28, 1927, in Baku and died in the same city on April 3, 2000. He received his initial training in painting at the A. Azimzade Art School from 1945 to 1950. He then pursued higher education at the Surikov Art Institute from 1951 to 1957 when he went on a creative mission to India and Pakistan. One of his notable works from this period is "Choice of a Bracelet" (1957). Jafarov created an extensive gallery of works in thematic painting, portraiture, landscape, and still life, distinguished by their unique composition, color, and treatment style. His work was dominated by nationalistic tones and was often inspired by folklore and traditional themes although he was also the creator of numerous noted portraits.
