About this work

This is a small, framed portrait of a man in a dark blue military uniform. He’s wearing a cap with a white trim, a white glove on one hand, and a few medals pinned to his chest. The background is a plain purple, and the painting looks a little faded. The text below the painting says "Virág Gedeon" and mentions he was a "honvéd" (which means a national guard officer). The uniform suggests he held a formal military role. Next, check out the Museum of Ethnography to see other portraits like this one.
