Return of Rippl-Rónai painting to Kaposvár museum

Overview

President András Baka has returned the József Rippl-Rónai painting ‘Medgyessy olvas’ to the Rippl-Rónai Museum in Kaposvár after it had been on loan to the Sándor Palace for nearly a year.

The loan originated from a visit to Kaposvár by former president Tamás Sulyok and his wife, Zsuzsanna Nagy. While political figures had previously questioned the circumstances of the selection, Kaposvár Mayor Károly Szita clarified that the municipality suggested the specific painting to the presidential couple, who then accepted the offer. Minister Viktória Lőrincz announced the return, noting the artwork is once again part of the museum’s permanent collection.
