Dresdenszenen II: One of These Things...

On the facade of the Kunstakademie, the Germans make a game stab at establishing their national bona fides in the field of the visual arts. Can you guess which of these is not like the others?


(Sorry that I couldn't quite squeeze the whole thing into the frame without falling into the Elbe or reading the manual of my digital camera. Still, you can probably figure out the truncated name on the right. Click to enlarge.)

Raff was quite a respectable composer wasn't he?

Hi, Josh.

Chng here, just read your entries. Did you know we were in Germany at the same time? Were you working or on vacation?

Anyhow, while you were in Dresden, I was in Munich. Heard Calleja and Netrebko (in that order) in Boheme.
