About the book: Habsburg cult and coffee house literature, waltz rhythm and Schönberg, Opera Ball, Wiener Werkstätte and Wiener Schmäh, Art Nouveau, MUMOK and Albertina, Qualtinger and Jelinek, St. Stephen's Cathedral, Prater, Naschmarkt and Strudlhofstiege, the trivial, the epochal, and the bizarre – Vienna is full of stories and sights. This collection, with hundreds of photographs from the last 175 years, invites you on a stroll through the history and districts of the Austrian capital – from k.u.k. glory and the Fin de Siècle, through Cold War Vienna, to the modern metropolis.
