About the piece
Painted in 1851 by Slovak artist Peter Michal Bohúň, this oil portrait captures Donát Várady-Szakmáry in striking domestic attire. The composition is defined by the bold contrast between the vibrant orange trim and the deep tones of his robe, rendered with the refined realism characteristic of the mid-19th century.
