Style

Pure international Jugendstil/Art Nouveau stle. Actually the building shows one of the most beautiful example of iron portals which also include very interesting bronze details (by Gero and Gyory Company, Budapest). Window glasses are by the famous Hungarian artist Miksa Roth and his school.

Building is actually under reconstruction. As per our habit, we will have a look when the works will finish and if the restoration will finally follow a real conservative approach à la Alois Riegl.
