Molnar, C. Pal, linocut

Description: This is an original linocut print by Hungarian artist Pal Molnar. The artwork features a portrait image orientation of a small size, framed and signed by the artist himself. It was produced in the 1930s using the linocut production technique. The print is an original and not a licensed reprint, and it does not come with a certificate of authenticity (COA). The artwork is a beautiful representation of Hungarian art from the 1930s, making it a great addition to any art prints collection. I purchased this piece in Tokaj, Hungary. Pal C. Molnar is one of the outstanding figures of Hungarian graphical artists. His works can be recognised by his individual style. He very much liked to use the techniques of woodcut and lithography. His elegant lines and forms cubistic and expressive elements are added. Although he used the new techniques of art work, his works kept their figurative style, in many cases the choice of topic is traditional. He is a renovator of sacral art, especially with his representations of Mary’s and Jesus’ life. In 1928 he went to the Collegium Hungaricum in Rome with a scholarship. From that time on he works find a neo-classicistic focus, which can be well combined with the influence of the Renaissance painting. The vibration of the light and dark surfaces next to each other gives his works a certain dynamic. His character drawings are full of humour. The housewives, the well entertained gentlemen and the cuddling couples – they all represent the atmosphere full of irony of the contemporary man.
