Sándor Petőfi (1 January 1823 – most likely 31 July 1849) was a Hungarian poet and liberal revolutionary. He is considered to be the greatest Hungarian poet but certainly the best known.
There hundreds of Petőfi statues and monuments throughout Hungary as well as in the neighbouring countries (in areas that used to belong to Hungary before WW1).
This is his best-known statue on Petőfi Square in downtown Budapest, made by Miklós Izsó and (after his death) Adolf Huszár in 1882.
