In the heart of Kaposvár, a small town in the Empire of Austria, May 23, 1861 welcomed an extraordinary talent into the world of art - József Rippl-Rónai. In the course of his life he rose to become a Hungarian master of Symbolism and Late Impressionism and had a decisive influence on Modernism in Hungarian painting. His works represent an exquisite selection for fine art prints that capture the charm and legacy of this innovative artist.
After graduating from high school, the ambitious Rippl-Rónai followed a formal education in pharmacy before discovering his artistic fire. In 1884, he headed to Munich to hone his skills at the Academy under the tutelage of Johann Caspar Herterich and Wilhelm Von Diez. His talent was soon recognized by a scholarship that allowed him to continue his education in Paris, where he worked under Munkácsy. With his first great success, the exhibition of the painting "My Grandmother" in 1894 at a Salon de Champ-de-Mars, a world of opportunities opened up for him. He became a "Nabi hongrois", recognized and accepted by the Nabis group of artists.
However, Rippl-Rónai was not only a painter, but also an enthusiastic designer of everyday objects. He designed utilitarian objects and embroideries, which were executed by his French life partner and later wife, Lazarine Boudrion, and won prizes at the Paris World's Fair. His appreciation for everyday life was also manifested in his task of furnishing living quarters for his Hungarian patron Andrássy. The artist made a point of developing his own style and maintaining that distinction. His art print "My Grandmother" is a tribute to this idea, which made originality the forger of his fame.
Throughout his life, Rippl-Rónai was repeatedly plagued by a longing for his native Hungary. Although he did not found his own "school" there, he was able to impart his knowledge and skills to important artists such as Sándor Bortnyik and István Beöthy. Recognition in his homeland came gradually, and when he died in 1927 in his carefully designed Villa Roma in Kaposvár, he had found his home. Today, Rippl-Rónai's former home and studio is set up as a museum, where his brother Ödön's rich collection is on display. His hometown Kaposvár has named a regional museum in his honor, which has large holdings of his works. Our selection of art prints brings the rich artistic legacy of József Rippl-Rónai into the homes of art lovers worldwide, keeping the memory of this pioneering Hungarian artist alive.
