Babits: The Book of Jonah II 1975

"Babits: The Book of Jonah II" is a 1975 ink drawing by Maria Bozoky, a Hungarian artist known for her expressive, gestural style. This piece depicts a large-eyed fish rendered with a bold, dynamic stroke. The swirling lines and washes create a sense of movement and energy, capturing the essence of Jonah's journey through the depths of the sea as described in the biblical story. Bozoky's abstract approach to the subject matter invites viewers to engage with the emotional weight of the narrative, rather than focusing on a literal representation.
