The Enchanted Carriage, 2019

The poem by Konstanty Ildefons Gałczyński was my very favourite lullaby when I was little. The magic and the rhythm of it was in my head ever since. I like to share it with people I care about the most. I decided to share it now in a different form with all of you.

“Arthur will surely confess
I swear, that I don’t lie,
But six words, no more, no less
Were contained in that wire:
ENCHANTED CARRIAGE
ENCHANTED COACHMAN
ENCHANTED HORSE.
…”

I think it’s quite appropriate to be done as a last painting of this year. Let it bring you some magic too in the coming 2020! If anyone is interested in the poem itself, here is the full English version. And here is the Polish original one. Enjoy!

And HAPPY NEW YEAR!
