He moved back to Budapest in 1922 where he became  particularly known for his murals that decorate the The Danube Palace (formerly the Casino of Lipótváros) which was completed in 1895. He exhibited in Munich in 1890 and in Vienna in 1894. In France, he received an honourable mention in 1897 and a silver medal in 1900 at the Exposition Universelle in Paris.
