Description

This delicately executed coloured etching by the Hungarian artist Gross Arnold depicts a poetic, dreamlike view of his studio in Torda. With fine, precise lines and minute details, the artist creates a world where reality and imagination intertwine. The studio, rendered with delicate architectural structure, stands amid a flourishing, symbolically charged garden landscape.

Renowned for his unmistakable etching technique and his refined use of colour, Gross Arnold combines technical mastery with a whimsical, almost childlike visual language. The composition teems with tiny figures, plants and celestial motifs — a surreal microcosm inviting the viewer into a tranquil, introspective realm. The transparent hues of yellow, blue and rose lend the scene both luminosity and depth.

“Atelier in Torda” exemplifies Gross Arnold’s lyrical symbolism, transforming his personal surroundings into a stage for inner visions and poetic reflection. It reveals his unique blend of craftsmanship, humour and a deep yearning for harmony.
