The Vienna Museum of Applied Arts presents the excesses of feasting and celebrating in an exhibition.
André Ostier: “Vicomtesse de Ribes und Pierre Celeyron, Winter Ball, Hotel Coulanges”, Paris, 30. December 1958.
Where, if not here, should one celebrate that there are festivals! For the baroque way of life of the Viennese, even death is only a transition to the heavenly Heurigen. There they will all meet again, the people who were willing to party from before. Empress Maria Theresa in Turquerie costume. Archduke Charles II of Habsburg and his wife Maria Anna. Monarchs and socialists, blue blood and red Vienna.
