Magyar graphic artist Alíz Buzás literally gets inspiration from Hungary’s capital. The talented illustrator has been capturing Budapest’s sights for years, and her earlier works include vibrant drawings of the city’s iconic public-transport conveyances, like the vintage streetcars running along tram line 47 or the soon-to-be-replaced blue metro M3 cars. For her latest project, the artist created a collection of colorful posters that illustrate 14 Budapest districts along with key landmarks in each area, including the Buda Castle, Nyugati Railway Station, or Liberty Statue atop Gellért Hill.
Many of the city’s key sights are presented in the artist’s recently produced illustrations that capture the Magyar metropolis based on its geography, showing landmarks in each neighborhood like the Royal Palace, the Hungarian National Museum, the Gellért Hotel, or the city’s beautiful railway stations. “I created distinct posters depicting 14 of Budapest’s districts that portray key buildings, objects, and tiny details that I find engaging,” states the illustrator on her website, where many of her recent and previous artworks are uploaded. Looking at the posters we see that they boast different shapes – this is because Alíz made her geographic illustrations resemble the layout of each district that she portrayed. We hope to see the artist continue her quest of creatively demonstrating Budapest’s beautiful scenes.
