The prestigious British newspaper’s online article – “Wish you were here: 25 art shows to see around the world this summer” – highlights that the Renoir painting from 1903 is the most valuable purchase of the Museum of Fine Arts over the last hundred years.

As pestbuda.hu describes, the almost life-size nude painting was bought for $12.3 million ~ 3,5 billion HUF. The painting could already be viewed by the Hungarian audience 110 years ago, in 1907, at the National Salon exhibition; however, the museum was unable to purchase the work. Thanks to the support of the government, Renoir’s masterpiece is back in Budapest, available for exhibition visitors until the 20th August.

A masterpiece can be seen among the former Renoir painting collection preserved by the Museum of Fine Arts, such as Young women busts, and some pieces of 20th-century modern French art – Paul Gauguin, Paul Cézanne, Eugène Boudin, Maurice Denis, Charles-François Daubigny, Camille Pissarro, and Pierre Puvis de Chavannes’s paintings.
