porto - Feb, 11 2009 04:02pm Basia, Vienna looks like another interesting city to visit. jacko1 - Feb, 11 2009 07:02pm Good pic Basia, who is the statue?. basia - Feb, 12 2009 06:02pm Tony, I tried to find whose monument this is and spent hours, but found nothing. This really must be someone unimportant! It looks like this is one of the Emperors, who occupied this palace. Perhaps other Globies know who this is. jacko1 - Feb, 12 2009 06:02pm Basia, thank you I will wait for feedback. horourke - Feb, 12 2009 07:02pm I believe this to be the statue of Franz 1 of Austria who was also Franz !! of the Holy roman Empire about 1806. Statue constructed 1842/46 with the four figures representing Peace Might Faith and Justice. The Emperor is dressed in a Roman Toga. I hope I read the correct website jacko1 - Feb, 12 2009 07:02pm Thank you horourke, I have an enquiring mind and you have set it at rest, long live Globo! pesu - Feb, 13 2009 08:02am Hi Basia, Tony and Hugh, a friend in Vienna confirmed Hugh's information about Franz I of Austria, the monument was created by the Italian sculptor Pompeo Marchesi. basia - Feb, 13 2009 11:02am Hugh, thank you very for your help.
