{"title":"Jenő Kéméndy","description":"\u003cp\u003eJenő Kéméndy (1860–1925) was a Hungarian painter of Transylvanian origin, appreciated for his artistic versatility and involvement in scenographic art.

In his paintings, we often observe the elegance of costumes, environmental details, and a discreet, yet present sense of spectacle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday, Jenő Kéméndy's works are sought after by collectors, appreciated for their quality of execution, for the refinement of their themes, and for their connection to the Central European artistic culture of the late 19th century.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"jeno-kemendy-dimineata-de-primavara","title":"Jenő Kéméndy - Spring Morning","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003esigned and dated lower right, in red, \"Jeno Kemendy, (19)19\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eoil on canvas\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e74 x 59 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDOCUMENTARY DATA\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eKéméndy Jenő was born in 1860 in Orăștie (Transylvania) and died in 1925 in Budapest.
