Pierre Puvis de Chavannes
In 1894 Réti travelled to Turin, Italy. There he painted "Kossuth Lajos a ravatalon" ("Lajos Kossuth on His Bier"); the revolutionary had just died there. Réti was attracted by the work of Jules Bastien-Lepage. During an 1895 trip to Paris, he learned about the work of Pierre Puvis de Chavannes.
