On July 5, 1853, in Kisszeben, in the Kingdom of Hungary, a young man named Mihály Tivadar Kosztka opened his eyes for the first time. He would become known by the artist name Tivadar Kosztka Csontváry and embark on a remarkable journey as a painter. Csontváry, a pharmacist by trade, first discovered his artistic calling at the age of 41, inspired by an inner inspiration. His expressive, figurative paintings are unique in their colorful intensity and can also be found in numerous art prints today.
Csontváry's passion took him to distant lands such as Palestine, Lebanon, Sicily, Greece, Bosnia and Egypt. The variety of landscapes he experienced on these trips was captured in his works. His ability to artistically process these impressions set him apart from most naive painters. He developed a high mastery of expression and composition, which found expression in monumental formats of up to 4 by 7 meters. His works, a blend of expressionism and elements of post-impressionism, are an impressive testimony to his artistic vision.
Although his creative period was limited by latent schizophrenia and ended after only 16 years, Csontváry left a deep mark on the art world. His first oil paintings were created in 1894 and attracted the attention of artists such as Pablo Picasso, who paid him high tribute. Despite this success, Csontváry died impoverished and lonely.
Csontváry's works became increasingly valuable in the decades following his death. His 1902 painting "The Meeting of the Lovers" (Hungarian: "Randevú") was auctioned in 2006 for more than one million euros. Today, many of his works can be admired in the Csontváry Museum in Pécs. For lovers of his art, his art prints are a way to enjoy the passion and talent of this remarkable artist at home.
