The complex nature of this painting shows the strong influence of the great Viennese master Hans Makart. Even the tonality demonstrates his aesthetic sway over Gyula Tornai, adding a unique art-historical dimension to this work. The ‘Makartstil’, which determined the culture of an entire era in Vienna, was an aestheticism the likes of which hadn’t been seen before. Called the ‘magician of colours’, he painted in brilliant hues and fluid forms, which placed the design and the aesthetic of the work before all else.
