Gothic (1927)

In the '10s, he was touched by activism. His increasingly monumental, powerful figures almost burst his paintings. His male figures symbolise strength, his female figures represent domestic bliss. Tensing strength, thickly contoured, stylized forms give his compositions their distinctive world. He was a fanatical believer in the power of action, which he proclaimed in his graphic series of the 1920s. For almost a decade after the fall of the Soviet Republic, Kron settled in Kassel, where he educated young people in the modern spirit of modern art. This School of Fine Arts in Kassa in the 1920s was of epochal importance, and many talented artists of Slovak painting and graphic art graduated from its courses. 

Jenő Krón's print Gothic (1927) is an example of the artist's new drawing period of the late 1920s, in which he transformed his naturalistic depictions into a more elevated, metaphysical approach.
