Vienna's Haschmarkt: Where Life is Good


Vienna's Hasch Market,
Near Olbrich's Secession Building

What's not to like? Erich Wolfgang Korngold, one of the great composers for concert hall and film, used to hang out here. He had good taste, to say the least...

Olbrich's Secessionist masterpiece, whether viewed as a visionary work, a mere novelty, or as
'The Golden Head of Cabbage',
is still revolutionary.
