Salvator Mundi, a művészeti világ Megváltója
Salvator Mundi – The Saviour of the Artworld

Summary/Abstract: Art – in a certain sense - was born in the era of Renaissance. At least two explicative paradigms about art have appeared since the Renaissance, and we might be witnessing the appearance of a new one. The story of Salvador Mundi, found in 2005 and attributed to Leonardo, highlights the artworld’s expectations, possibilities, and challenges on the one hand; while on the other hand, it shows how art institutions function. These aspects may be of interest mainly to art historians. However, if a curator decides to exhibit a contemporary copy of Salvator Mundi in a museum, his/her gesture raises art philosophical issues.
