Szeged City Hall, Ödön Lechner, 1883

This building was designed by Lechner before his Secessionist period, but still, it has some of the elements that were to become his trademark, including Zsolnay tiles on the roof.

Masterpieces by Lechner in the Secessionist (Hungarian Art Nouveau) style include the Geology Institute http://www.pbase.com/helenpb/image/130482111, the Postal Savings Bank http://www.pbase.com/helenpb/image/130678536, Szent Laszlo Church http://www.pbase.com/helenpb/image/130490945, a villa http://www.pbase.com/helenpb/image/130489212, Kecskemet City Hall http://www.pbase.com/helenpb/image/130648750 and the Applied Arts Museum http://www.pbase.com/image/128557313.
