Paul Nagy: Une francophonie millénaire

Paul Nagy has been living in Paris since 1956. He had been researching at French libraries for ten years in order to collect correspondences and texts of Hungarian royals and famous ones written in French to royals, politicians, high ranking military officers, artists, writers, institutions, friends and so on. That unique collection has been published in French titled "Une francophonie millénaire" by Honoré Champion publisher. The anthology covers the period from sixteenth century to early twentieth century. The book was published with the support of our foundation.

Summer Camp of Landscape Painters

The 15th Summer Camp of Landscape Painters will be held in Felsőbánya (Baia Sprie), Romania between 5th and 12th of September. Our Foundation has been supporting their activities since 2006. May we quote few sentences from their home page as follow:

"It is not an every-day occurence in our region that a European-wide cultural movement such as the Nagybánya School of Painting has grasped the admiration of Europe. We, therefore, believe we must strive to do everything in our power to preserve this valuable tradition.

Our foreign donors are: the Illyés Foundation, the Homeland Foundation, the National Cultural Fund and the Academia Humana. Notable among these is the Academia Humana, a Japanese Foundation who have kindly pledged their support for the next ten years, and which, among other things, covered the cost of this website."
