Titanic is one of the artist’s favorite themes. This is because he is a naval engineer. But it is the least desired by the public because it is an illustration of a disaster. 50 paintings were made in 2011 and 2012 being displayed in galleries and museums in Romania and Belgium. The artist has been “on board” for a long time and feels part of the story. His favorite places were the upper decks and the Engine Room. There are often satirical references to people on board, workers or passengers. Also the moments of the ship’s sinking appear in surreal paintings.
Titanic’s life rescue boats
One of the ship’s legacies was that she had too few lifeboats to evacuate all those on board. The 20 lifeboats that she did carry could only accommodate 1,178 people, despite the fact that there were approximately 2,224 on board.
