Hungarian University Of Fine Arts
The Hungarian University of Fine Arts ( Hungarian: , MKE) is the central Hungarian art school in Budapest, Andrássy Avenue. It was founded in 1871 as the Hungarian Royal Drawing School ''(Magyar Királyi Mintarajztanoda)'' and has been called University of Fine Arts since 2001.

In later decades, the school developed programs for training not only painters and sculptors, but artist-craftsmen, mosaic- and gobelin-makers, stage de ...

István Csók
István Csók (13 February 1865, Sáregres – 1 February 1961, Budapest) was a Hungarian Impressionist painter. Although he was born in Transdanubia, his narrower homeland was not a hill country, but the flat greens of the Sárrét, the humid air of the Sárvíz and Malomvíz, and the lush green vegetation.

He was a sickly, weak child, his family pampered him and condoned his little pranks. Later, in high school, he interpreted learning in a peculiar way: he was unable to deal with what he didn't feel like doing, but he didn't have to study what he liked. After seeing the warnings sent home every quarter, his father finally ran out of patience and reproachfully asked the question in his reprimanding letter: ...
