As far as I am aware there is not yet an equivalent of this graphical output
in Biopython, though I agree that the facility would be nice ;)

Robert Cadena and I are working on incorporating GenomeDiagram (
http://bioinf.scri.ac.uk/lp/programs.php) into Biopython.  It works
differently to the Perl code, though you could make images rendering the
same information as in the BioPerl example you link to.  Even though it's
not yet part of Biopython, it does play nicely with Biopython, so you might
like to try it out.

If you are specifically looking to create a graphical representation of
BLAST output, then I have a Python script that might be useful to you.
Please get in touch if you'd like a copy.
