Original artwork description:

The Golden Apple Tree evokes the timeless aura of myth and legend. A monumental trunk rises in strength, its branches glowing with golden fruits that shimmer like otherworldly lights. The interplay of shadow and radiance creates a dreamlike, almost sacred mood, where the tree stands as both a living presence and a symbolic archetype. Inspired by Hungarian folklore, where the golden apple often symbolizes magical quests and transformation, this painting bridges ancient storytelling with contemporary visual language.

Created in 2010 with the encaustic technique on board, 50×40 cm. This original artwork combines rich textures, warm golden tones, and the organic forms of nature with a symbolic narrative rooted in Hungarian folklore. The glowing apples against the dark trunk embody both mystery and vitality, resonating with universal mythological themes. A distinctive encaustic painting for collectors who value contemporary art infused with cultural heritage and timeless symbolism.

The fiberboard panel is mounted on a frame. Ready to hang!
