Study

Farkas's oeuvre is represented by two important works at our present auction. While at the discussion of the picture Woman by the Window the features connecting the painter to the national trend of the school École de Paris were evoked, here one has to stress those features of the painter's lonely character that he brought from home. During his apprenticeship he was corrected by Károly Ferenczy in Nagybánya and later he worked with Adolf Fényes in Budapest. Still, his first real master was László Mednyánszky. The artist often let the teenager boy accompany him, and later he also helped the young painter with his instructions. Mednyánszky's closeness, his art, which could see the things behind the hidden faces of entities and could reveal them as well, became an enthralling experience in Farkas's life. In both painters' pictures, the viewer can catch the creative will that suggests transcendental content through the picture of the represented nature by the spiritualization of sight. They found ways to the deepest layers of human soul.
This deep relationship of the student's art to that of the master's, which was not necessarily revealed on the surface, was recognized by the critics of the period as well. His first monographer, Jenő Nyilas-Kolb, wrote about the relationship as follows: ' Farkas called the old painter his "foster father". His teachings were seeds which sometimes sprouted at the most unlikely places, only decades later. Farkas's spiritual life, which was susceptible to mysticism, must have been shaken by the peculiar personality of the Tostoyan-Buddhist painter, who taught him to believe in the deep relationship of painting to cosmos.'
Mednyánszky's influence - because of the revealing impulses of French art - was pushed into the background for decades. In the 1910s the marks of cubism, in the following decade the stylistic characteristics of the École de Paris were dominant in Farkas's painting. At the end of the 1920s he gave up painting those compositions that brought him such a huge success. Around 1930 the most important pieces of the oeuvre were born; they projected the painter's lonely, anguished world. The picture discussed here - just as Mednyánszky's enigmatic landscapes - is a hidden portrait that projects the oscillations of the painter's soul. The scenery of a numb, silent world is formed by rusty browns and charred grays in the landscape fallen into gray dusk. The simplified forms, the reduced colorit, the conscious keeping a distance from every epic element detach the representation from the reality of sight and raise it into a more general, spiritual sphere. According to Nyilas-Kolb, Farkas 'likes to give the world without any kind of human supplement, in its sober, virgin nakedness. His pictures represent the virgin order breathing calmly, the secret private life of nature, which is in an endless distance from the unnecessary movements of human rowdiness. Even the houses are standing there as if they did not have any earthly purpose…Everything the painter had seen, felt and experienced, everything he had recorded into his notebook and into his nerves was only for creating eternal pictures; so that the records could set into something firmly final in the spiritualized forms of fields, seas, skies and grounds. Painting for Farkas is life and worship, as if he made every brushstroke in the name of eternity.'
