Illustrated map of Budapest – 1960

Created by István Mácsai in 1960, this perspective map of Budapest offers a detailed, hand-drawn representation of the city, crossed by the bright blue Danube. The contrast between the steep, densely illustrated districts of Buda to the south and the more regular, grid-like districts of Pest to the north is particularly marked. Monuments, bridges, avenues, and iconic buildings are precisely drawn. The compass rose and ornate cartouche in the upper left complete this large-scale artistic map, both utilitarian and decorative. Dimensions: 117 x 82 cm.
