Jindřich Štyrský's 1921 painting "Three Madmen" (Three Madmen) is an abstract composition showing three figures. The figures are depicted as geometric shapes and a muted colour palette consisting of brown, yellow and ear orange colours. The figures are stylistic and overlapping, creating a sense of depth and complexity. The composition has influences of cubism, with fragments and overlapping planes suggesting different perspectives. In the lower right corner is the monogram "J. Štyrský 21" is visible.
This painting is interesting for its early modern style and the way it abstractly depicts human forms. The work highlights Štyrský's artistic exploration and his ability to visually express abstract ideas.
