Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
The paintings of Alexandre Lenoir the French painter whose work explores the versatility of the painted image from reworked personal photographs
Alexandre Lenoir is a French painter who graduated from the Beaux-Arts de Paris in 2017. He paints lush, mysterious landscapes on a grand scale, with monumental canvases that straddle the line between figuration and abstraction. The artist works from personal photographs, which he reworks and projects onto his canvas. Over the years, he has developed a unique technique that consists in making the image appear on the canvas through a series of actions sometimes carried out over several months.
In this process that he compares to photography, Alexandre Lenoir masks parts of the canvas with tape, then builds up layers of paint on top, which eventually impregnate the canvas through and around the masking tape. This means that the painter does not see what he is painting directly but relies on the accidents he orchestrates with the tape. It is when the tape is removed at the end of the process that the image is revealed. The results of this process are brightly colored paintings with a vaporous aesthetic, with a partially controlled figuration technique that leaves plenty of room for interpretation.
