"Baalbek, 1906" is a notable oil painting by the Hungarian painter Tivadar Kosztka Csontváry (1853–1919), who is recognized as one of the early pioneers of modern art in Hungary. The painting depicts the ancient ruins of Baalbek in Lebanon, a site renowned for its grand Roman architecture and monumental temples dedicated to Jupiter, Venus, and Bacchus. Csontváry, who embarked on extensive travels throughout Europe and the Middle East, was deeply inspired by the landscapes and historical sites he visited, which often became the subjects of his works.

Created during a pivotal period in Csontváry's artistic career, "Baalbek, 1906" reflects his fascination with the power of nature and the passage of time, themes that are recurrent in his oeuvre. The painting is characterized by its bold use of color and light, as well as a distinctive approach to perspective, which sets it apart from the conventional styles of the era. Csontváry's technique involved a unique blend of realism and expressionism, with a touch of visionary elements that would later influence subsequent generations of artists.

Measuring 100 x 152 cm, "Baalbek, 1906" is considered one of Csontváry's major works, showcasing his ability to capture the grandeur and mystery of ancient civilizations. The painting is also a testament to the artist's solitary and somewhat enigmatic career; Csontváry worked largely outside the mainstream art movements of his time and was only posthumously recognized for his contributions to modern art.

Today, "Baalbek, 1906" is held in high esteem by art historians and is regarded as a significant piece within Csontváry's body of work. It is often exhibited in retrospectives of the artist's paintings and remains an important example of early 20th-century Hungarian art. The painting not only offers insight into Csontváry's personal vision and artistic journey but also serves as a cultural bridge, connecting Eastern European art with the broader currents of modernism that were sweeping through the continent at the turn of the century.
