Celebrate a defining moment in Central European history with Hungaria’s Millennium – Budapest 1896, a luminous composition by Belgian painter Théo Van Rysselberghe. Created for the millennial exhibition commemorating 1,000 years of Hungarian statehood, the artwork blends Symbolist grace with Van Rysselberghe’s refined, post-Impressionist touch. At its center sits an allegorical female figure- calm, poised, and timeless - gazing across a sequence of painted vistas that highlight Budapest’s architectural splendor and the landscapes along the Danube.
The piece is both promotional and poetic, weaving together national pride, mythic beauty, and a turn-of-the-century optimism. Van Rysselberghe’s soft palette and restrained linework elevate it beyond traditional poster art, transforming it into a serene historical tableau. This print brings a touch of continental elegance to any room, particularly spaces inspired by vintage travel, fin-de-siècle design, or the romance of Old World Europe.
