Hungarian artist (1856–1914)

Árpád Feszty was a Hungarian painter. He was born in the town of Ógyalla. His ancestors were German settlers. He was the fifth child of Silvester Rehrenbeck (1819–1910), an affluent landowner at Ógyalla, and his wife Jozefa (Linzmayer). Silvester was ennobled by the emperor on 21 April 1887, and the family thereafter took the name Martosi Feszty. Feszty mostly painted scenes from Hungarian history and religion.
