Knights Castle 1980

This etching, Knight’s Castle, was made by Rudolf Láng, but when or with what materials, we don’t know. What grabs me is the layering here, like visual echoes, suggesting time and memory. There’s this medieval knight, looking quite forlorn, and in the background, a weather-worn castle, etched with the same tone as the sky. Everything is textured. It makes me think of a dream, or a story being passed down. If you look closely at the dark shadows beneath the horse, you can see a very faint second image. What is it? Maybe another castle? This feels like one of those quiet pieces that whispers rather than shouts. Láng reminds me of other artists obsessed with process, like Ensor, creating worlds within worlds. Maybe this artwork is a reminder that art isn't about fixed answers, but about embracing the journey, the questions, and the endless possibilities of seeing.
