Description

This image was likely to have been done to illustrate some publication in Hungary in 1942, it is also dated XII (December). We have another image of similar size with the same dating.

Ferenc Bordás was born in Temesvar, Hungary (now Timisoara, Romania) in 1911. He was a student of György Buday and Vilmos Aba-Novák at the Szeged Young People's College of Art where he learned printmaking, spcializing in woodcut. He went on to specialize in designing and hand printing ex-libris for book collectors.

Ferenc Bordás died in Budapest, Hungary in 1982.
