"The Sermon" is a notable painting by the Hungarian artist József Rippl-Rónai, who is often regarded as a pioneer of modern Hungarian art. Created in 1896, this work exemplifies Rippl-Rónai's transition from his early academic style to a more Symbolist and Post-Impressionist approach, reflecting the broader European art movements of the late 19th century. The painting is celebrated for its innovative use of color, form, and composition, which marked a departure from traditional Hungarian art of the time.

Rippl-Rónai was significantly influenced by his time in Paris, where he was exposed to the works of the Nabis, a group of avant-garde artists who sought to break away from the naturalism of Impressionism. "The Sermon" reflects this influence through its bold, flat areas of color and its emphasis on decorative, almost abstract patterns. The painting depicts a scene of a sermon being delivered, with the figures rendered in a stylized manner that emphasizes their spiritual and emotional states rather than their physical realism.

The composition of "The Sermon" is carefully structured, with the central figure of the preacher dominating the scene, surrounded by attentive listeners. The use of light and shadow, as well as the interplay of warm and cool colors, creates a sense of depth and movement, drawing the viewer's eye across the canvas. Rippl-Rónai's technique of using broad, sweeping brushstrokes and his innovative approach to color harmonies contribute to the painting's dynamic and expressive quality.

"The Sermon" is housed in the Hungarian National Gallery in Budapest, where it continues to be a significant piece in the collection, representing a key moment in the development of modern Hungarian art. Rippl-Rónai's work, including "The Sermon," has had a lasting impact on subsequent generations of artists, both in Hungary and internationally, cementing his legacy as a central figure in the transition to modernism in European art.
