The show entitled "Splendour of the Medici - Art and Life in Renaissance Florence" features some 200 works from the 14-15th century from 60 Italian collections, including valuable pieces from Florence's prestigious Uffizi Gallery.
 
It has been organised under the 2008 Renaissance Year in Hungary, a programme marking the 550th anniversary of the coronation of Matthias Corvinus (1443-1490) to the Hungarian throne.
