This Website, sponsored by KFKI Computers of Budapest, presents a virtual gallery of images of fine arts from Hungary (.jpeg, you choose view size.) This Central European nation, at times under the influence of the Romans, Turks and Austro-Hungarian Empire, houses a rich artistic tradition. Works of Hungarian fine artists as well as others that worked in Hungary are featured here in alphabetical order by artist. There's also a section of altarpieces, miniatures, carvings, etc. by anonymous artists. Visitors to the site will enjoy the collection, which includes fragments of Romanesque wall paintings and architectural sculpture, Gothic and Renaissance altarpieces and carvings, paintings from the baroque, classicist and romanticist periods, and modern art. The short biographies of the artists will aid in appreciation of the talented yet not all internationally-known artists of Hungary. You might even want to send a virtual postcard from the site.
