Painter. He was a pupil of János Vaszary at the Art School and travelled to Rome on a fellowship in 1929-30. He spent the years 1946-47 in Pécs. His major work is a series of illustrations to Homer's "Iliad", but he painted frescoes, too. His art ranged from drawings to monumental frescoes. In his early drawings, monumentality met the styles of medieval Italian panel pictures. In other periods of his art, he painted rearing horses, his favourite subject matter, or meditating women, still-lives, quiet landscapes and pictures with rigorous compositions which had an idyllic atmosphere. He was a significant representative of Hungarian neo-classic painting.
