Really interesting. It's a hotch-potch of Modern, Slav, Mediterranean,
Germanic, even some Turkish and did I spot the odd Fraternal Gift From
The Peace-Loving People of...?. Fascinating, but then of course that is
what the southern part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire always was.

Can't say I like the modern art much, but The Museum of Broken
Relationships is very funny.

Thanks for posting,

Peter
