Since developing a production ready browser is not a trivial pursuit. HTML browser unlike xml parsers need to deal with large set of outliers. So unless you would like to demonstrate just a small a subset of web running in your browser, I would recommend webkit or gecko toolkits as starting point. Both gecko and webkit are available as library in python. But if you are true and brave. The intend you venture beyond explicable, you could look at cairo, gtk canvas and goocanvas for rendering target. If these libraries also look too tame go ahead and use OpenGL as the rendering target.
