About the Item

Artist: Oleg Kateryniuk Work: Original oil painting, handmade artwork, one of a kind Medium: Oil on Canvas Year: 2023 Style: Contemporary Art Title: This Silly World Size: 39" x 63" x 1'' inch, ( 100x160x3 cm) Unframed, Stretched on Wooden Bar, Gallery Wrapped, Ready to Hang In the captivating oil painting, "This Stupid World," the artist masterfully captures a mesmerizing portrait that juxtaposes athleticism, determination, and an ethereal backdrop. The canvas comes alive with two powerful female athletes poised on the precipice of an icy mountain, seemingly ready to take a daring leap into the unknown. Donning swimwear instead of traditional climbing gear, they challenge societal norms and embrace their inner strength with unyielding confidence. The foreground of the painting is dominated by the two female athletes, their sculpted bodies radiating energy and determination. The artist skillfully brings out the contrast between their powerful stances and the treacherous mountainous terrain, symbolizing the challenges these women face in a world that may not always embrace their unconventional choices. Their eyes gleam with unwavering resolve, embodying the spirit of fearlessness and empowerment that transcends gender norms. Despite being in a rugged and icy environment, the athletes' swimsuits add an element of surprise and playfulness. It serves as a visual representation of breaking away from societal expectations and finding liberation in pursuing their passions, regardless of conventions. The vibrant colors of their swimwear provide a striking contrast against the icy blues and whites of the mountain, further emphasizing their defiance and individuality. The background of the painting showcases a breathtaking expanse of deep blue and pure white. The vastness of the landscape echoes the immense possibilities awaiting those who dare to challenge norms and societal boundaries. The pristine, untouched snow symbolizes the blank canvas of life, ready for them to paint their destiny on their own terms. "This Stupid World" as a title offers a thought-provoking layer to the artwork. It invites viewers to ponder the inherent absurdities of a world that often imposes limitations and expectations, stifling individuality and dreams. The painting becomes a poignant reflection of the courage and resilience required to overcome societal pressures, reminding us that strength lies in embracing our unique identities. As viewers engage with this striking oil painting, they are invited to celebrate the audacity of these two extraordinary athletes who stand unyielding against the constraints of convention. "This Stupid World" serves as a powerful testament to the unbridled potential of the human spirit and an inspiration to forge one's path, no matter how unconventional it may seem. * CONDITION: we tried to convey the maximum information with the help of photos about this product About the artist: Oleg Kateryniuk was born in 1969 in Ukraine.. has made a successful career as a graphic designer.. But, over the years we become more sensitive to people, to nature, to the environment, to everything around us. So something happened, noticed, interested you and sits in you, with its emotions, feelings, its truth and philosophy.. no-no, it does not bother you, just sometimes, as if talking to you, tells your story, pulls your strings souls, and are forced to flee in search of something new, still unnoticed, and very, as it seems at this time, so necessary.. and not only you.. And in such moments you take a pencil, brushes and everything at hand.. and you draw.. being left alone with canvas or paper and your thoughts..

  • Impressionist Painting of a Bohemian Woman Budapest 1925 Bertha De Hellebranth
    Located in Rochester, NY
    Bohemian woman Budapest, Hungary 1925 by Bertha De Hellebranth. Fabulous period painting brings to life the bohemian intelligentsia of Europe in the 1920's. I believe the painting is of the artists sister Elena Maria De Hellebranth. Both sisters were accomplished artist and worked and exhibited together. See the photo of the sisters Elena on the left and Bertha on the right. Oil on canvas. In a period frame. Signed lower right. Inscribed on reverse. Provenance: label from Newman Galleries Philadelphia. BIOGRAPHY ; Bertha de Hellebranth and her sister Elena were born into a cultured upper-class family in Budapest, Bertha in 1899, Elena in 1897. Their father was a lawyer and their mother a student of Franz Liszt's last living pupil. Both sisters showed artistic potential early, beginning to paint at four or five years of age. Their parents encouraged them, and had the means to send them to the best art schools of the time. They studied at the Academy of Fine Art in Budapest, at the Académie Julian and the Académie de la Grande Chaumière in Paris, and painted portraits of European nobility. As Patricia Fazekas points out, "Growing up in a family of privilege, they seemed to have unusual access to many illustrious people." So we should not be surprised to find among their subjects members of high society, such as Count Andrássy Gyula, the Russian-born Princess Baby Galitzine, and Admiral Horthy Miklós, the Regent. Later on, their subjects included American heiress Gladys Vanderbilt (Countess László Széchenyi), President Theodore Roosevelt's granddaughter Paulina Longworth and former President Dwight D. Eisenhower.Often, the sisters would paint the same subject at the same time, offering the sitter a choice of portraits. Most often, the sitter wanted both renditions.While Elena concentrated on working in oil and watercolor, Bertha used gouache and oil to achieve her effects. Elena gave lectures and workshops, was a writer and also wrote popular and ecclesiastical music, while Bertha also went in for sculpture and handicrafts.From the mid-thirties until World War II, Bertha and Elena divided their time between their home in Budapest and a home on the ocean at Ventnor, NJ. In 1925, they showed their work at the Nemzeti Szalon in Budapest, and in 1926, they had a joint exhibition of their portraits in the US. Both exhibited their work at the Art Institute of Chicago, the Brooklyn Museum of Art, the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts and most major museums and galleries in the US. Bertha also had exhibits at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Both Bertha and Elena were Fellows of the Royal Society of Art (London), and garnered numerous prizes. Bertha was awarded First Prize by the National Academy of the American Water Color Society one year, and the Grand Prize of the Audubon Society. She was one of the founders of the now defunct World League of Hungarian Artists Abroad (Külföldi Magyar Képz?m?vészek Világszövetsége), and received a Gold Medal from the Cleveland Árpád Akadémia in 1963. (Elena also received the Akadémia's gold medal in 1965.) Their work is found in museums and galleries too numerous to mention.The de Hellebranth sisters were devout Catholics, and this is evident in their many portraits of clerics...
