Hungarian painting caught up with up-to-date European trends in the major works of Pál Szinyei Merse around 1870. Although he only got to Paris at an old age, he discovered "plein air" as a method of conveying the form-giving and colouring effect of sunlight more or less synchronously with, but independently of, the impressionists. He, too, created the harmony of sun-soaked colours dipped in diffuse light by considering complementary and contrasting effects and tone values indicating the light saturation of colours. Unlike the works of his predecessors and several of his contemporaries, the coherence of a Szinyei painting is not ensured by a single predominant tone but by the equal light values of many different colour patches.In his perfectly balanced compositions, every element refers to the union of man and nature.
Hungarian artist, the founder of Impressionism in his country. In the portrait genre, he remained close to a realistic manner. Being the director of the School of Decorative Art (later – the Academy of Arts) in the last decades of his life, he was one of the most influential figures of Hungarian painting.
– Pal Szinyei Merse, even before the establishment of Impressionism in France and the rest of Europe, began to give much importance to lighting and color.
– In his early, very courageous works (created between the end of the 60s and the first half of the 70s, during the Munich period), the academic rigor of the composition, the clarity of the contours and silhouettes, as well as generally clear lines, are completely absent. At the same time, an outstanding innovative at that time ability to use harmonious color contrasts is manifested.
