Béla ZSIGMOND (? - 1945, Oradea)
Artistic education: Private studies in Oradea with master TIBOR Ernö,
Baia Mare artistic colony (1923),
Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Budapest (1941).
Like his fellow painters from the south of the Carpathians, the Transylvanian painter received the microbe of travels in the interwar period, his peregrinations around the country and abroad becoming over time witnesses of the life of an extremely talented author, but hardly mentioned in the specialized literature.
  Plein-air landscapes from Maramures County are built with touches of vibrant colors, around the central pigment of the Baia Mare Painting Collony, the green of the luxuriant nature, always caressed by the light of a present but gentle sun, or rural landscapes descriptive of the simple life in the ambiance of the Maramurese village, characterize this circumscribed stylistic period the 1920s-1930s.
