Description

Gresham Palace's ornaments. Made by Maróti Géza, Telcs Ede, Margó Ede, Ligeti Miklós, Róth Miksa, in 1907. - Magyarország, Budapest, V. kerület, Roosevelt tér.

I took the first shot when I arrived in Budapest but did not know the building until now. The second shot is from the bus on Chain Bridge as we were coming back from Castle hill.

Gresham Palace is an outstanding piece of Hungarian Art Nouveau architecture. Completed in 1907 on the plans of Zsigmond Quittner and the Vágó brothers, it served as the Budapest office of Gresham Insurance Brokers, London. The first floor used to accommodate the renowned Gresham Café, where the Gresham Circle, a group of Hungarian artists held their meetings. As of today, Gresham Palace houses the luxurious Four Seasons Gresham Palace Hotel.
