The image displays the Béla Bartók Memorial sculpture by György Salló, located on Bartók Béla út in Budapest, Hungary, specifically positioned against the facade of the Goldmark Hall of the Faculty of Music of Eötvös Loránd University. The central subject is a dark, abstract-representational metal sculpture. It depicts the composer Béla Bartók, whose bust and arms are integrated into a fragmented, incomplete circular framework. Bartók's head, with a detailed likeness, is angled downwards and to the right, exhibiting a concentrated facial expression. His right arm is raised with the hand gesturing upwards, while his left arm extends forward with an open, splayed hand. The metallic circular structure incorporates various carved musical motifs: segments resembling piano keys, musical notation, and the bells of brass instruments (e.g., trumpet or French horn) are visible along its lower sections. The upper right segment of the circular frame features intricate, organic-style metalwork. The sculpture rests on a dark, geometric metal plinth, which bears the inscribed signature "György Salló." The background consists of a light-colored, textured stone building facade. Integrated into this facade, above and behind the sculpture, are two circular stone medallions carved with theatrical masks: one depicting a laughing, grotesque face to the left, and another a more serious or surprised face to the right. A tall, multi-paned window with decorative upper tracery is present on the left side of the building, and a dark, metal-grilled opening is partially visible on a lower granite base. A fluted or ridged frieze is visible along the upper portion of the facade. The scene is illuminated by ambient light, casting no distinct shadows. in Budapest, Hungary
