Wagner in vienna. Detail from a tableau. Partial text: "do, rö, mü, fa, so, la, si, do. In the noun of journalism, what you hate, waanen we know, i bring you, because you don't read the newspaper, waanen we know, a classic answer, what is in no newspaper, sin in goethe and said among us is a nice compliment - waanen we know!" alludes to the precarious relationship of the viennese press to wagner, which is denigrated here through "jewish" german. The middle figure represents götz von berlichingen, who presents the well-known quote. The right-hand figure is probably alluding to eduard hanslick. Date: 1875.
