Synopsis

Mihály Munkácsy (1844–1900) was the leading figure in nineteenth-century Hungarian art, a pioneering genius who established new traditions, whose oeuvre is a fundamental pillar in the history of Hungarian painting, and whose works constitute icons of Hungary’s cultural heritage. To mark the double anniversary that falls in 2024–2025 – 180 years since his birth and 125 since his death – the Hungarian National Gallery is organizing a major exhibition. November 16th 2024 – March 16th 2025 The exhibition will include more than 50 works of art, archival photographs, documents and cultural artefacts, which will help to reveal Munkácsy's life, achievements and his unparalleled rich oeuvre. He was held in immense esteem and admiration throughout his lifetime, he owed this not only to his talent as a painter, his outstanding craftsmanship, but also to his international success, a legend in the history of his development from a poor orphan to the top of the social pyramid. The exhibition will present Munkácsy's well-known masterpieces, as well as a selection of his lesser-known works, rarely or almost never seen in Hungary.
