Tomasz Wiktor brought the young Chopin back to life in his portrait. It's just that it is not similar to any of the historical performances, and yet - convincing, close and contemporary (though not in a tracksuit and sneakers, without headphones and an mp3 player). He looks at the future with a brilliant look, his hands are not on the keyboard, but in his pockets ... a romantic or a timeless hipster? Although this picture is traditionally painted on canvas, it breaks with the yoke of remixes - transformations of well-known images of Scheffer, Delacroix or daguerreotype.
