Władysław Podkowiński, Szał uniesień (Frenzy of Exultations/Extasy), 1893
The painting is considered to be the first work of Symbolism in Polish art. The first exhibition of the work was met with huge interest, evoking both appraisal and criticism from more conservative circles. The negative voices and failure to sell the work for the desired price allegly pushed the author into real moment of frenzy that resulted in cutting the paining in pieces. Speculation about the true meaning of the paintings, reasons for destroying the work and author's untimely death strengthen the legend surrounding the work. Currently, after successful restoration the paining is available for public eye in Krakow Sukiennice (The Cloth Hall), belonging to the National Museum. The cuts are still visible though.

Szeptunka
Litanijny rytm w paciorkach ukrzyżowanych ulic pełnych ludzi.
Stronić znaczy odczuwać znany lęk z powodu masowego nazewnictwa . Prostota skojarzeń współbraci bywa okrutnie trywialna.
Wdrożona w obieg płynie jak rzeka podtapiająca złote hałdy wysp lśniących onirycznymi stworzeniami.
Nie znają lewitacji ani tańca derwisza, mrozi ich żyły myśl o translokacji, transmutacji czy wplątane białe ciało niewiasty w czarną grzywę dzikiego konia.
Tak.........Szeptunka bolesnym szeptem strudzonego języka przemierza alfabet uzdrowień lub złorzeczeń.
Do upadłego.......aż resztki oswobodzonych kulek grochu wysypią się znienacka na podłogę.
Szept przerwany ?.........Ustał , by wybuchać gnozą dla niewtajemniczonych. Jednoznaczną i bolesną w cielesności.
Znać, że Szeptucha z Panem Bogiem rozprawia o rzeczach ostatecznych.

Wladystaw Podkowinski (1866-1895) “In the Garden” 1894 Oil on canvas Photo is taken by: @robertpuffjr This little landscape study entitled “In the Garden” represents the modernity and novelty of the painter’s approach to nature, combining his Parisian experiences with a specific expressionism of form. The work shows a part of a park alley slightly enlivened by a sketchy figure of a woman. The lesson of Impressionism is visible in the treatment of colours, their dependence on sunlight and its reflection and, above all, in the seemingly random choice of a scene: the artist has attempted to capture the fleeting moment without paying attention to the composition layout.

I was looking at the illustrations that accompany the lyrics of each album looking for inspiration for a quick fanart to do over the weekend and seeing the little drawing of Stand by him made me want to do a personal version.
Then, while I was doing the draft, similar to the original, I thought back to a painting I love: "Ecstasy" or "szał uniesień" by Władysław Podkowiński. And I thought it was a perfect pairing.
It was one of the first oil paintings seen in my youth that I fell in love with so I'm really pleased to have been able to combine it with a Ghost fanart.

Władysław Podkowiński, Szał uniesień (Frenzy of Exultations / Ecstasy)
1894, oil on canvas,
The painting is one of the best known works of Podkowiński. Upon its first exhibition the painting was labelled scandalous for its bold representation of the theme of sexual desires. The subsequent attempt of the artists to destroy the work by cutting it with a knife and his untimely death cemented Podkowiński's legend as a accursed artist.
