Tranquility by Endre Szász

Endre László Szász (1926-2003) was a Hungarian-Canadian artist, painter, and illustrator who liked to be referred to as a Folk Surrealist.

He was known for his surrealist-symbolic style and his astounding technique, which earned him a reputation as a Paganini of fine art. This was famously illustrated in 1984 in Amman when the paintings he was due to exhibit failed to turn up. Undeterred, he painted them again overnight, and the exhibition was opened by Jordan’s Queen Noor the next day.
