I have sold my painting!

in art •  7 years ago 

My exhibition was opened yesterday and an old lady immediately bought one of my painting and two of my books. She bought them for her daughter. I'm very happy, because nowadays is very difficult to sell any art in Hungary, especially in Miskolc, where people are poor.

This is the mandala, The Lion of Istergam (Az esztergomi oroszlán), painted with acrylics on canvas board and decorated with crystals:

"The Lion of Esztergom" the only one that is still alive on the chapel's wall. Congratulations on your selling @kalemandra

Oh, my, that's amazing! Great thing you also know this wall painting! Have you already seen it inEsztergom or just heard about it? I haven't been there yet. This wall painting is in a very bad state :(

Unfortunately I haven't had the privilege to visit Hungary. I first came across this during one of my case studies in historic art back in 2012. How did you come across this?
Yes ma'am it is in a very bad stage now and has already gone through decades of corrosion. I hope at least now it will be preserved neatly for the future generations .

There is a book, titled "The secret of the lions of Ister-Gam", written by Ferenc Badiny-Jós, who was a sumerologist. The Hungarian town, Esztergom=IsterGam, where Ister=the river Danube, and goddess Ishtar(Akkad-Babylon) or Dingir Innanna (Sumer)
Lions never lived in the Carpathian basin, but lived in Mesopotamia. Now, put the infos together :)))

Thank you dear @lakshmi!

great artwork my friend. Please continue posting a valuable like this and I definitely see you being successful on this community in the near future. Great post

Thank you dear@hiranur!

Congratulations! You have real connoisseurs of your art.

Thank you dear @ inna-yatsuk!

Congratulations! Its always a great confirmation for an artist, when a piece gets sold. In a way, the ultimate appreciation, because you know, that person really really wants it :-)

Of course this is a great thing. Exhibitions are the best events to sell art because people can see the artworks not only in pictures.

Nicely done! Congratulations on the show and the sale :)

Thank you very much!

Gratulálok a sikereidhez!

Bár azt azért hozzátenném, hogy nem csak Miskolcon szegények az emberek.
Én egy Észak-Alföldi kis faluból írok neked, de Budapesten születtem és hosszú évekig, több, mint két évtizedig (23 évig) ott is éltem.
Két helyen is próbáltam dolgozni részmunkaidőben, de a fogyatékosságaim miatt nem ment és körülbelül havi 60 000 Ft-ot kapok, ahogy a testvérem is és így élünk együtt. Azt hiszem a szegény jelzőt nyugodtan magamra is ráakaszthatom...És hány ember él még így, vagy esetleg ennél is rosszabb anyagi körülmények között...
Szomorú, ami ebben az országban napjaikban megy...

Congratulations @kalamandra. That's very exciting. I hope it's the first of many sales for you! 😍

Beautiful piece! I love the stones that are on it; they add a lot of interest to the already magnificent details! :)

Congratulations, you did it , I know how hard it is to sell art now, you made a great piece of art :)
