Károly Ferenczy is considered to be the greatest master of Hungarian Impressionism. In his early years at Nagybánya he painted monumental Biblical compositions, and gradually the wealth of colour typical of the Impressionists emerged in his paintings. His art had an immense effect on his contemporaries and the following generation of painters. His painting Morning Sunshine (1905) from the collection of the Hungarian National Gallery appears on the stamp design and Self Portrait (1910) is shown on the first day cover. The painter’s signature is used in the design of the special postmark.
