MUNKACHY 1876Neither 19th century visual art nor the historical developments of Hungarian art can be discussed without considering Munkácsy's contributions. His works are considered the apogee of national painting. He was a standard-setter, an oeuvre of reference value. He was one of the few with whom the antiquated colour techniques of 19th century Austro-Hungarian painting reached its most powerful and most lavish expression.[8] In 2005, the Hungarian National Gallery organized in Budapest the first ever comprehensive exhibition of Munkácsy's paintings scattered throughout the world. As many as 120 pieces were borrowed from different institutions, museums and private collections. The exhibition catalogue published on the occasion, entitled Munkácsy a nagyvilágban (Munkácsy in the World) also included a number of reproductions of his paintings. The three-month exhibition was a feast for Hungarians who had little access to his original works. Paintings by Munkacsy are in the Milwaukee Art Museum, Dayton Institute of Art (Ohio), and the Albany (New York) Museum of Art and History, and The Condemned is part of the Founding Collection at the Frye Art Museum in Seattle (Washington). His paintings also hang in the Arad Art Museum (Romania) and the Ferenc Mora Art Museum (Szeged, Hungary). Mihály Munkácsy is honored by Hungary by issuing a postage stamps: on 1 July 1932 which bears his portrait; on 18 March 1977 his painting “Flowers” was depicted on a postage stamp in the series Flowers by Hungarian Painters.[9] Honored by Luxembourg by issuing two postage stamps on 20 May 1996.
