Vida Gabor
  • Biography

    Vida Gabor was born in 1937 in Hungary. He was largely self-taught as a painter and is known for using unique techniques in his work, such as designing his own brushes and tools. Gabor's painting technique involves "scumbling," which includes applying thin layers of color over a darker underpainting. His artwork focuses on European life, featuring scenes full of character and humor, often depicted at night using soft candlelight and street lamps to create a warm and intimate ambiance. There has been speculation that Gabor may have signed earlier works as "Goulard" to appeal to the French market, as similar scenes have been attributed to the French artist Victor Goulard.
