I’m diggin’ the Schwarzenegger shades all the guards got to wear. Behind this gentleman is the Ethnographic Museum, a “runner-up” in the design competition for the Parliament building. The Parliament competition winner was Imre Steindl, who’d studied in England and had been inspired by Britain’s Parliament. But there were no real losers. The other two competitors saw their designs realized in the form of the Ethnographic Museum and the Hungarian Ministry of Agriculture. Both buildings sit directly across the street from Parliament.
