150 x 50 cm
Oil-gold-canvas
A painting by Tamás Náray
The artwork is part of the 'Byzantium, the Cradle of Immortality' series
FOR SALE

The abstraction places the outlines of the defensive lines into a crafted, spiritual space, where both the frontal and top-down views appear simultaneously. The black flow from above signifies the vulnerability of the city, that is, the desired position. Everyone envied Constantinople. (Just as people today envy everything that is ready and wealthy. The necessary work for its creation is not envied. The message of Byzantium remains relevant, remains valid even today.) The upward surging line of golden color not only indicates wealth but also reveals the blessing of creative work. The red glowing pieces cascading into infinity ultimately capture the moment when Byzantium's light fades in the destructive inferno of modern warfare after the discovery of gunpowder.

At the center of the painting stands a red column, shaped like a soaring axe, squeezed between the monolithic blocks of the two empires, almost like a sigh. We again perceive strong gestures in its symbolism: the turquoise surface connects the viewer to the artist's beloved theme, the creation, while the opposing black, dense formation reveals the unrestrained desire for conquest and subjugation, along with its consequences.

The base of the central element implies disorder, while the lower part of the composition displays the beauty and harmony of earthly life. The artwork can be interpreted as a kind of memento, as human ambition and greed make even the most ideal things unbearable. Nevertheless, towards the crystal-clear sky, despite all difficulties, a path is created in grace.
