Thaler, tombac, solidus – Numismatic mini-exhibition
Coin installations inspired by pictorial masterpieces

Historical images, historical coins. From autumn 2020, a new mini-exhibition of the numismatic collection will be on display in the permanent exhibition of the Déri Museum.

 

In the Gallery, for Benjamin Block's painting of Pál Eszterházy, the silver thaler of Miklós “Lustrous” Eszterházy was added in the portrait room.

 

The tombac plaque of Attila Rónay industrial artist made in 2004 accompanies the “Búsuló betyár” [Grieving outlaw] by Mihály Munkácsy.

 

The golden solidus of Constantine VII is linked to the “Botond vitéz” [Botond, the valiant soldier] by Mihály Kovács, and the golden forint of governor John Hunyadi is coupled with the image of Matthias Corvinus by Viktor Madarász.

 

The golden sultani of Suleiman the Magnificent was placed beside the image entitled “Zrínyi kirohanása” [Zrínyi’s charge] by Bertalan Székely, while the golden ducat of Stephen Bocskai supplements the painting of Viktor Madarász depicting the diet of Ónod.

 

The installations of the exhibition were created alongside the motto of experience-based knowledge transfer, and praise the work of Zoltán Orbázi exhibition director.

 

 

You can find out more about the numismatic collection in the Medal of the Month series, or watch an animation about the early history of the collection.

Déri Múzeum

Az 1902-ben helytörténeti múzeumként alapított intézmény egyszerre őrzi Debrecen, Hajdú-Bihar megye és az egyetemes művelődéstörténet kulturális emlékeit. Déri Frigyes 1920-ban adományozta rendkívül jelentős gyűjteményét múzeumunknak, amit az elmúlt évtizedekben számos más, jelentős adomány is gazdagított.
