HUNTERS SCREEN

THE FOLDING SCREEN FEATURES FOUR HUNTING DEITIES PAINTED IN A STYLIZED DELICATE WAY. THE HAND PAINTED ILLUSTRATION EVOKES THE CRUMBLING MURALS OF POMPEII WITH A JUXTAPOSITION OF FINELY APPLIED LAYERS OF GOLDEN OCHRE HUES AND WARM GREY TONES.

​

CRAFTED FROM PINE WOOD, THE FOLDING SCREENS SHOWCASE INTRICATE ARTWORKS PAINTED BY GERGEI ERDEI, UTILIZING DRY BRUSH MOVEMENTS TO RECREATE THE ANTIQUE EFFECT OF CRUMBLING ANCIENT FRESCOES. ERDEI SKILLFULLY JUXTAPOSES MULTIPLE REFERENCES, SEAMLESSLY WEAVING TOGETHER GREEK AND ROMAN DEITIES WITH THE ROBUST 2-DIMENSIONAL HUMAN ILLUSTRATION STYLE OF ANCIENT EGYPT CREATING A VISUAL TAPESTRY THAT NARRATES STORIES OF THE PAST. EACH FOLDING SCREEN IS A LABOR OF LOVE, TAKING 5-7 DAYS TO FINISH, AND IS A ONE-OF-A-KIND MASTERPIECE.
