Fishermen on the Oxbow of the Danube

Further downstream, the Danube creates a vast floodplain landscape. Most of the important rivers in Slovakia flow into the Danube trhough an arid flatland called Žitný Ostrov, which contains one of the largest underground drinking water reservoirs in Europe.

Július Koreszka focused on lyrical landscapes in the western regions of Slovakia. Partly inspired by his studies of Post-Impressionists in Paris, he infused his paintings with peaceful and idyllic atmosphere.
