Where & when
What's on the note
Front: Sándor Petőfi (1823–1849), Hungary's national poet and revolutionary hero. A key figure in the Hungarian Revolution of 1848 against Habsburg rule, Petőfi is celebrated as one of the greatest lyric poets of Hungarian literature. He disappeared in the Battle of Segesvár and is presumed to have died during the conflict. His poetry, particularly 'Nemzeti dal' (National Song), became anthems of Hungarian freedom and identity.
Back: Pastoral scene depicting Hungarian shepherds resting beneath a large spreading tree by the riverside. This bucolic imagery represents traditional Hungarian rural life and agricultural heritage of the Great Hungarian Plain (Alföld). The composition evokes the pastoral themes common in Petőfi's poetry, connecting the revolutionary poet on the front to the Hungarian countryside he celebrated in his verse.

Background & history
This note belongs to the 1975 forint series issued by Magyar Nemzeti Bank during the socialist period of the Hungarian People's Republic. The series was issued on October 28, 1975, as indicated by the date on the note. These banknotes circulated through the final years of communist Hungary and into the early post-transition period, being withdrawn in the early 1990s as newer security features became necessary. The choice of Petőfi as the portrait subject reflects his enduring status as a national symbol transcending political systems.
