The Threatened Swan; Interpreted later as an Allegory on Johan de Witt. A swan fiercely defends its nest against a dog. In later centuries this scuffle was interpreted as a political allegory: the white swan was thought to symbolize the Dutch statesman Johan de Witt (assassinated in 1672) protecting the country from its enemies.

In 1968, I was born in Nitra, Czechoslovakia (now Slovakia). My father, an amateur photographer, was the inspiration for my interest in photography and art. I enjoy photography, HDR photography, restoring and colouring old photos, portraits, photo art, AI art and old masters.
