	After the crushing of the 1848-49 Hungarian bid for independence from the Habsburg Empire, media advocating separation from Austria was illegal. But, art featuring Hungarian history, the Conquest of the Carpathian Basin the princes Álmos and Árpád took on contemporary political significance. At a time when Hungary was being denied its sovereign rights, the pictures of Árpád claiming the land and of the contract between the settling Hungarian tribes sealed with blood from their chieftains collected in a bowl served as symbols of the freedom of the Hungarian nobility to choose their own kings as laid down in the constitution of hundreds of years tradition. It also demonstrated an attitude by the Hungarian nobility towards their history.
