I have endeavoured to recreate an oil painting of yesteryears, an artwork of profound allure, originally crafted by the illustrious 19th-century artist, József Borsos (1821 - 1883).

The piece in Hungarian is entitled “Szeret-nem szeret (Virágjóslás)” ("He loves me... he loves me not" or "The Decision of the Flower"), conceived in the year 1856, is a sublime expression of the delicate game of love, as played by two young ladies of the era.
My own interpretation closely mirrors the dimensions of the original, albeit in a square format rather than the original's oval.

This enchanting tableau depicts two young girls, clad in the fashionable attire of the 1850s, engaged in the tender act of plucking petals from lilies, seeking to divine the affections of their would-be paramours. The heroine, resplendent in a red-orange skirt, dominates the scene, her countenance illuminated by a warm, ethereal light from the left, signalling a favourable response from the flower's oracle. In contrast, her companion appears less fortunate, her visage downcast and shrouded in shadow, her attire in colder hues.

The painting itself is a study of a mysterious creation, one that belies its ostensibly simplistic, profane subject matter. Borsos' work offers a fertile ground for a rich tapestry of art historical analysis. Though the viewer may be entranced by the charming, almost saccharine smile of our heroine, they may be unaware of the considerable stir "He loves me... he loves me not" caused amidst Borsos' contemporaries.

A 19th century critique in a contemporary Viennese magazine, draws a comparison between the young ladies in the “He loves me... he loves me not” painting and the alluring ancient courtesan, Phryné.
These women, submerged in a quagmire of sensuality, find themselves displaced from the respectable bourgeois salons. The subject matter further intensifies the negative connotations, as it projects the impending moral decline of the young girls. Though the lily is a biblical symbol of purity and innocence, it carries with it the prophecy of fulfilled love and requited affection.

The original painting by Borsos is a mysterious and beguiling work, rife with subtle nuance and symbolism. The divine light that bathes the fortunate heroine is emblematic of the spiritual potential that resides within each of us, a notion I hold dear in my own belief system.

In my recreation, I have strived to retain the warm, rich colours of Borsos' original work, those hues that evoke hope, happiness, love, and warmth. These colours, imbued with the artist's own élan vital, are the essence of what renders oil painting the most superior form of artistic expression. The radiant light that pervades the piece serves as a symbol for divinity, blessing, and knowledge, and it is my hope that through my own work, I can inspire others to tap into their own inherent divinity.

In the careful rendering of each detail, such as the delicate earrings, bracelets, and floral hair adornments, one can perceive the influence of Dutch still-life painting in Borsos' oeuvre. As a fervent admirer of classical oil painting techniques, I have striven to capture these exquisite details in my own work, staying true to the spirit and essence of the original piece.

In paying homage to Borsos' "He loves me... he loves me not," I have sought to not only recreate a beautiful and evocative work of art but also to offer a glimpse into the transformative power of divine light.

In the end, "He loves me... he loves me not" stands as an indisputable testament to Borsos' artistic prowess. The delicate application of paint and slender foundation preserve the ethereal beauty of the girls' faces and the lightness of the red-orange skirt. The cautiously managed play of light and shadow gently models the figures, whose porcelain-like skin seems to pulsate on the canvas. Borsos' colours are warm and full, with a hint of the Italianate colouration championed by Amerling.

The artwork has captured the attention of esteemed individuals such as Franz Liszt, who likely acquired the painting at the Viennese Art Society exhibition in 1856. And now, with my rendition of "He loves me... he loves me not," I invite viewers to delve into the enigmatic world of József Borsos, and explore the depths of love and innocence through the sublime medium of oil painting.

As an artist, I believe that art is a doorway to other dimensions – mysterious, limitless, and spiritual – inspiring beauty and amazement. My goal is to create artwork that allows people to experience things that would otherwise be impossible for them.

 

Using light as a symbol for divinity, blessing, and knowledge, I aim to transform negative belief systems into positive ones through my paintings. This divine light transcends time and space and signifies our potential for divinity – the ability to achieve what seems unattainable.

 

Art is also powerful because it allows us to comprehend metaphysical ideas, offering us a physical illustration that we can emotionally understand. Through my art, I hope to reveal the spiritual potential within ourselves and create a beautiful and harmonious world.

 

Drawing inspiration from mythology, myths, and legends, I tell epic stories through my paintings as if they are part of a grand myth. In these stories, people become heroic figures and the only reality is the divine will each of us possess – our thoughts determine the outcome of the plot.

 

I hold oil painting in the highest regard, as it is the most venerable, superior, and esteemed form of painting. To me, there is no better way to communicate visual ideas with their beauty, form, light, and magnificence than through oil painting. Using classical oil painting techniques, I am able to emulate and recreate reality and fancy with unparalleled realism. It is the most fitting way to manifest my ideas, and I am always eager to explore the possibilities of oil painting.

 

My painting aims and principles are to express archetypal forms and themes, independent of the spirit of the age, to bring the eternal and the timeless to life; to depict beauty and harmony in a sensual way; to create elegance with graceful and stylized forms; to capture pathos and emotions; and to gain the highest level of pictorial knowledge and craft through continuous learning and self-education.

 

A little about me: I was born in 1975 in Stockholm and began my fine arts studies in Sweden at the Konstskolan i Stockholm. In 1999, I moved to Budapest to study oil painting and restoration at the Hungarian University of Fine Arts until 2004. Since then, I have been working as a freelance painter and illustrator, completing assignments for clients all over the world. My work includes portraits, still lifes, landscapes, and more, and I also teach drawing and painting in my studio in Budapest. I am a true master of my craft, using oil paints and pastels to create realistic and dream-like works of art that capture the beauty of the world around us.
