Short Description: "Soma Orlai Petrich, aka Soma Orlay Petrich (October 22, 1822, Mezőberény - June 5, 1880, Budapest) was a Hungarian painter, born to a Serbian father and Hungarian mother.

Originally aspiring to become a writer, Orlai Petrich was a pupil of Jakab Marastoni in 1846. He attended Ferdinand Georg Waldmüller's school in Vienna beginning in 1847. He often painted historical themes and in his lithographs he portrayed experiences during the war of independence. He studied under Kaulbach in Munich from 1850. He painted "The Corpse of Louis II" in 1851, a decade before Bertalan Székely's painting on the same theme. He was also a popular portraitist." - (en.wikipedia.org 11.08.2021)
