Study

The figures in Bortnyik's picture are going ahead under their umbrellas, showing their backs. They do not notice the apocalyptic figure of the young girl blossoming out in front of them. The blue and green, indifferent circumstances of the strange scene and the green, ethereal trail of light embracing the figure of the woman stresses the abstract contents of representation.
Bortnyik was famous for his pictures parodying the giants of Hungarian and international painting. After the fashion of Karinthy's book that parodied the great figures of literature, he made his own collection of parodies Almost 50 pictures were made in this manner, but parallel to them he also painted some lyrical pieces. Rain in Spring is one of these pictures.
The figure of the girl in the picture is dressed in flimsy cloth, still, the men and women in their warm clothes in the rain and coldness seem to be more exposed and vulnerable. The girl is not escaping, not hiding herself; her figure seems just as natural as that of the nudes among dressed-up men in Manet's Breakfast Out of Doors or Giorgione's Concert. In all of these pictures the women seem to be natural and fetterless. As several impersonated notions can be connected to them, their figures and their physicality become abstract; they bear so many different meanings that their shapes seem to be covered by the notions they allude to. They represent all the beauty of nature: cleanness, love, fertile energy, flowers, trees and brooks that allay thirst. The choice is in the hand of the viewer who is orientated by Bortnyik entitling. Spring has symbolised rebirth and renewing and has been corporealized in the figure of a young girl since antiquity. The ancient farming cultures which were the roots of European tradition attributed different meanings to the notion of rain: cleanness, root of life, and purification are still living symbols in our culture. The contrast of wrapping and opening, death and rebirth, winter and the fresh light of spring, shrivelling and fertility is masterfully represented in this beautiful and moving picture of the old master.
