I'm really enjoying all your pics from Vienna (Adds it to the long list of places yet to go to).
Those Hapsbergs definitely knew how to make a good coffin, they kind of say "I may well be dead but you are still going to be in awe!" with a little edge of "... and no it won't be getting moved any time soon."
Glass cases can be the curse of anyone who wants to take a picture of the thing inside it, but they can produce interesting results. Case in point, the hands grasping from the shadows for the crown make a good picture great.
Hey, I was counting my luck they allowed photos at all :) It's a pity I couldn't take them in Schoenbrunn - now that's a combination palace and Addams Family Mansion. I adored the room Maria Theresa practically wallpapered with her husband's drawings.
