Original artwork description:

An impressionistic scene from Tatra Mountains which I visited together with my brother, who is a alpinist and also a climber-soloist (he can be found in the scene, along with his climbing backpack). Painted mostly alla prima with some impasto. This is the upper part of the "Zlomiska Valley" ( slov. Zlomisková dolina ) in the High Tatras. It was the evening before the next day's difficult solo climb. It was the largest painting I've ever painted. I tried to paint quickly, in the spirit of impressionism, maintaining simplicity and directness, more from memory than from field notes and without a sketch.

Location: High Tatras, Zlomiska Valley (part of Mengusovská Valley), Slovakia / Hohe Tatra, Trümmertal (Mengsdorfer Trümmertall), Slowakei / Vysoké Tatry, Zlomiská (Mengusovská dolina)

Zlomiska Valley (slov. Zlomisková dolina, Zlomiská, dolina Zlomísk, niem. Trümmertal, Mengsdorfer Trümmertal, węg. Omladék-völgy, Menguszfalvi Omladék-völgy) – a valley in the Slovak High Tatras, which is the north-eastern branch of the Mieguszowiecka Valley (Mengusovská dolina). (Wikipedia).

The painting will be carefully packed and secured in a strong cardboard box and protective layers - acid-free certificated paper and PE foams.
