affaire saliera

cellinis saliera has been found !!!
the thief of saliera has been identified and captured

Cellini-Salzfass, die einzige sicher von Benvenuto Cellini (* 1500 Florenz, † 1571 ebenda) stammende, erhalten gebliebene Goldschmiedearbeit im Stil der Spätrenaissance; für Franz I. von Frankreich 1540-43 angefertigt, gelangte als Geschenk Karls IX. an Erzherzog Ferdinand II. (von Tirol) in habsburgischem Besitz, heute im Wiener Kunsthistorischen Museum.

affaire klimt



in 1998 Austrian government edited a law in order to permit the beginning of the trial of Klimt affaire. In 1998 Austria had in charge for the first time presidency of eu. seven years later finally the pictures are restituted to their owner maria altmann, who is the niece of adele bloch blauer and lives now in california. and it is the second ausrian presidency. i think that the government choose this timing on purpuse in order to show europe and the world that they have a good conscience wih past history.
actually the debate about the restitution of the five klimt picture is significant for austrian identity. 50 years the five picture were in beledere national gallery and nobody noticed them. now that they will probably go to us it is a national euphory. good point forthe government: this picture debate keeps public attention away from government buziness.

call for relatives



on sunday there was a terrific reportage on orf : similar to the soap csi they tried to proove if the legend of the mozart skull, that is kept in mozartem is true.in order to proove that the exhumed skeletons of four relatives of mozart and send two teeth of mozart skull to a dna labor in US. actually i felt asleep and i missed the ending and the terrific result. later i read in the newspaper that they didn´t find a 100%proof. so now they have made a call of relatives of mozart. would be interesting to apply , if you are a relative you might get some authors rights ?
