Motherland and progress : Hungarian architecture and design 1800-1900
In the 19th century Hungary witnessed unprecedented social, economic and cultural development. The country became an equal partner within the Dual Monarchy when the Austro-Hungarian Compromise of 1867 was concluded. Architecture and all forms of design flourished as never before. A distinctly Central European taste emerged, in which the artistic presence of the German-speaking lands was augmented by the influence of France and England. As this process unfolded, attempts were made to find a uniquely Hungarian form, based on motifs borrowed from peasant art as well as real (or fictitious) historical antecedents."Motherland and Progress" ? the motto of 19th-century Hungarian reformers ? reflected the programme embraced by the country in its drive to define its identity and shape its future
