"Uncle Rippl, an Admirer of Kossuth" (1897) is a notable painting by Hungarian artist József Rippl-Rónai, a prominent figure in the development of modern Hungarian art and a key representative of the Nabi movement. The painting is a portrait of the artist's uncle, which not only exemplifies Rippl-Rónai's unique style that blends Post-Impressionism with Symbolism but also reflects the socio-political atmosphere of Hungary at the turn of the 20th century.

In this work, Rippl-Rónai captures his uncle, a fervent admirer of Lajos Kossuth, a Hungarian lawyer, politician, and Governor-President of the Kingdom of Hungary during the revolution of 1848-49. The painting is significant for its historical context as it subtly conveys the lingering impact of Kossuth's fight for Hungarian independence and the enduring respect he commanded among Hungarians, long after the 1848-49 revolution had been suppressed.

The portrait is characterized by Rippl-Rónai's distinctive brushwork and his use of muted, harmonious colors, which were influenced by his time in Paris and his association with the Nabis, a group of French avant-garde artists. The artist's approach to the composition, with its simplified forms and attention to the interplay of light and shadow, demonstrates his departure from naturalism and his movement towards a more modern, stylized aesthetic.

"Uncle Rippl, an Admirer of Kossuth" is not only a personal tribute to the artist's family member but also a work that encapsulates the nationalistic sentiments prevalent in Hungary at the end of the 19th century. The painting is held in high regard for its artistic merit and as a cultural artifact that provides insight into the Hungarian national identity during a period of significant change and modernization.

The painting is part of the collection of the Hungarian National Gallery, which houses the largest public collection of fine arts in Hungary. It stands as a testament to József Rippl-Rónai's contribution to Hungarian art and his role in introducing modern artistic trends to his home country.
