MOLNÁR József

(1821, Zsámbék - 1899, Budapest)

Légyott 1879 Olaj, vászon, 125 x 94,5 cm Magyar Nemzeti Galéria, Budapest

A kép festõje ismertté egy történeti tárgyú - Dezsõ vitéz önfeláldozását ábrázoló - festménnyel tette a nevét, de jeleskedett az életképfestészetben is, elõbb népi, majd polgári témákban. Szívesen élénkítette képeit elbeszélõ fordulattal. "Légyottról" van szó, az - alighanem titkos - találkáról, a lovag a jelek szerint késik. Izgalmát hölgyünk leplezni akarván kis kézitükrében hátra leselkedik. Arca, hajviselete finom, komoly. A fiatal nõ - hihetõleg nem elsõ - várakozásába nyugtalanságot csempésznek a mozgó lombokon bekandikáló fényfoltok. Ruhájának megvilágítása, a fehérek és füstszürkék hûvössége még mûteremfényre vall, azonban a háttér ösvényét már felderíti sárgás, áttetszõ gomolygásával a napfény. Valódi természeti élmény ez, szinte impresszionisztikus frisseségû.

MOLNÁR, József (1821, Zsámbék - 1899, Budapest)

Rendezvous 1879 Oil on canvas, 125 x 94,5 cm Hungarian National Gallery, Budapest

"The Self-Sacrifice of Knight Dezsõ" made Molnár's name famous but he was a great painter of genre pictures, too, first on life in the country, and later on life in towns. He added a narrative tone to his pictures with great pleasure. In "Rendezvous", the subject matter is obviously a secret assignation and the suitor seems to be late. In order to hide her nervousness, the lady peeps into her mirror to see what is going on behind her. She has a serious looking face and a formal hair style. She is expecting to see her admirer probably not for the first time. Light glimmering through the leaves is reflected and makes moments of waiting worried. The way her dress is lit and the coolness of whites and greys indicate that the picture was painted in the artist's studio. The path in the background is brightened by the sunshine. It is real nature with impressionistic freshness.
