I think I've discovered a new favourite underpriced 19th century painter

Adolph Hiremy Hirschl was a Hungarian and Jewish historical painter who's style was out of vogue, Klimt and Seccesionists ware simply more popular

But my God look at that spotlight, the drama

AHASUERUS AT THE END OF THE WORLD (1888) by ADOLF HIRÉMY-HIRSCHL

HIRÉMY-HIRSCHL, a HUNGARIAN painter who converted to CHRISTIANITY from JUDAISM, chose an interesting subject for his work.

This painting is really powerful because it's about the last steps of a mythical character called the Wandering JEW. He was cursed to wander the earth until the Second Coming because he sneered at JESUS on the way to the crucifixion.

AHASUERUS, exhausted and lost, limps through a cold and desolate polar landscape that ends his endless wandering. He's accompanied by an angel of hope on his left and a grim reaper of death on his right.

The naked woman symbolizes the end of the human race - the sense of tragedy is further heightened by the crows flying over the dead woman.

However, crows are more than merely a symbol of death; they also illustrate a point of transformation from the physical world to the spiritual world. AHASUERUS has a choice to make. What will he ultimately choose?

It's a shame that so few of HIRÉMY-HIRSCHL'S paintings have survived. The ones that have demonstrate exceptional visionary quality.

May I offer you some Hermes studies ? The little birdie had been drawn by a certain Adolf Hiremy-Hirschl, and I couldn't help but do that pose as well. He doesn't have wings but that's okay, his hat is very recognisable.

Happy New Year !
