Looking for Joseph Haydn
on a hazy November Afternoon

Notice how the little piece
of trash next to the Vespa
is colour-coordinated?

Judengasse

The Anker Clock
Emperor Charlemagne
marching towards 2:30PM
If you look closely, you can see
Joseph Haydn in the far right window,
the same figure, i.e. copper statue,
pictured in Sunday's "Time is Nowhere" post.
Mystery solved!

  1. Now, I could just stand on the street of your first image for a long time, and the Vespa is really different...yes. I don't think that I would ever see on of those where we live. Charming, as always~

  4. Mary,
    thank you! :-)
    I love that corner of Vienna.

    Vreni,
    I wonder whether Betty Boop stood in line when H&M offered the Versace collection last week. ;-)

    Carol @ Paris Breakfasts:
    I just wrote a rather wordy comment, explaining all about Haydn and Emperors, especially those without clothes (which nowadays abound!), and got swiftly punished by the Blog Deities: they forced me to sign in and all I got was a "Sorry, we can't blablabla" message. So, yes, Haydn, surely one of the greatest composers ever. *the end*

  6. I had to smile--my boyfriend's daughter loves Betty Boop. I'll have to send her here to see this!
