About The Artwork

The rugged Transylvanian Alps provide one of the most spectacular landscapes in Europe. Hawks soar around the craggy, snow-covered peaks, while bears and chamois take refuge in the dense forests below. Medieval villages and the ruins of once-proud castles can abruptly materialize through the mist, as if daring outsiders to uncover their secrets. Transylvania also produced a leader known as a defender of the Christian faith, a Romanian hero, and a subhuman monster. His name was Prince Vlad, but the world knows him by his nickname: Dracula. The Order of the Dragon Vlad, or Dracula, was born in 1431 in Transylvania into a noble family. His father was called "Dracul," meaning "dragon" or "devil" in Romanian because he belonged to the Order of the Dragon, which fought the Muslim Ottoman Empire. "Dracula" means "son of Dracul" in Romanian. Therefore young Vlad was "son of the dragon" or "son of the devil." Scholars believe this was the beginning of the legend that Dracula was a vampire.

Dear Art Lovers, It matters to paint something than nothing. Some years ago I approached art again. After graduating the fine art college in 1976 I decided to follow a degree in economics which I finished in 1984. I never lost contact with painting and I used to paint scarcely. I reached a moment in my life when I realized that my time is running fast and felt a void in my soul which can only be filled with painting. This gave a meaning and a purpouse to my existence. Painting is such an adventure. Every time I paint, I am wondering with my imagination and discover new and exciting things about the past, present and future of this wonderful World we're living in. Yours truly, Victor-Lucian
