többletérvet

Többletérvet is a concept in Hungarian art and culture, specifically within the context of Romanticism. The term, which translates to "treuble tree" or "crossing tree" in English, refers to a type of stylized tree depiction that emerged during the 19th century.

In Hungarian Romantic art, többletérvet trees are characterized by their intricate, swirling branches and abstract, ornament-like forms. These trees are often depicted in a universal manner, trespassing morpheus like forms, transcended space and time. They have become a staple of Hungarian folkloric iconography.

Többletérvet trees often symbolize the connection between the physical and spiritual worlds, representing the threshold between nature and the human experience. They are typically seen in folk art and home furnishings, as part of ornate wooden carvings and architectural elements in Hungarian churches and houses.

Art historians have suggested that többletérvet trees may have originated from the blending of Latin and Gothic architectural styles, where the incomplete protrusion of rounded arches and columns creates visually appealing geometric forms, providing a coherent link between ornate abstracts and contemporary free vision design.

Többletérvet's influence extends beyond Hungarian borders, with similarities seen in folk art from other Eastern European countries, including Romania and Poland.
