Fascinating! So many of the Hungarian motifs remind me of Mexican folk art.

Ikr, I mentioned in previous videos how much I love mexican & Latin American visuals, but didn't realise the connection until I started researching for this video ☺️ thank you for watching! 👋 Laz

I LOVE this show !!! My grandparents were born in Hungary and lived next door to us on the farm in Virginia, so my Mother talked Hungarian to them sometimes. I discovered Hungarian embroidery at an event in town, and went out and bought an embroidery stich book, a few threads, and found a Dover library book with Hungarian designs. The first designs I stitched were more pastels, until I studied the subject more and and started using the bolder colors. When I got tired of sewing I used the folk art designs and transferred them for watercolors. Thanks so much for the lovely presentation - LOL

I REALLY ENJOYED THIS FOLK ART TALK AS MY FATHER WHO WAS FROM BUDAPEST TAUGHT ME HOW TO PAINT THE FLOWERS WHEN I WAS A CHILD. I AM NOW DECORATING A SMALL TABLE WHICH MY HUSBAND MADE FOR ME. BOTH MY FATHER AND HUSBAND HAVE DIED BUT I HAVE MY MEMORIES AND WILL DECORATE MY TABLE WITH HUNGARIAN FOLK ART AS I REMEMBER. THANK YOU FOR REMINDING ME OF THIS BEAUTIFUL ART.

👏👏👏 So very interesting Laz, thank you for the 🇭🇺 Hungary history lesson, the craft symbolism and differences in regions. That's exactly what I love to know about art - everything! I've always noticed there is symmetry in alot of their craft like mirror images. Any special reason? Thank you for reminding us we are all the same, related and we belong to one race...the "human" race. 🌏
@dantierandbalogh6 ай бұрын
I believe the reason behind striving for symmetry, is that these decor elements usually were added onto symmetric things eg. dresses, gates, wooden chests, etc. It's just my educated guess though :) thank you for watching

Pretty amazing things I never knew, I was born in Moshon Magyovar in 1956, My mom loved to embroider, in fact when she visited there she brought back embroidery thread which I hold near and dear. We escaped Hungary in 1956, I lost my parents and my sisters I reside alone in Land O Lakes Florida, my favorite past time is stitching cross stitch,and embroidery, thank you for the history lesson

I collect painted folk art (Australian style native flowers, so not really traditional folk art) painted on wood as decor. Folk art makes me smile. Puts me in my happy place. I think it's a beautiful art form.

Love learning about other cultures and to see the embroidery is especially inspiring. Is it mainly a type of crewel embroidery or are they using regular floss?
@dantierandbalogh6 ай бұрын
Hi, I'm by no means an embroidery expert, but just like the design styles, the techniques and types of materials used are also differ from region to region ☺️ thanks for watching! 👍 Laz

. When we left Grandma and Grandpa's at night, we used to say, "Kissing in the pig pen!" Thank you for everything! They died when I was 10. I found out how to spell it: Koszonom Szepen. .

Omg Kissing in the pig pen, that's just fantastic, Jacqueline is rolling on the floor laughing 😂😂 they must have been the greatest grandparents 🤍
