A gouache on paper painting titled "Vienna Waltzes" by Nicha Sursock.

Vienna, late afternoon. Before the Sperl Tanzsalon, the air hums with waltzes and laughter. A yellow Pferdetramway (horse tramway) clatters past the Stadthalle Musikpavillon, filled with cheerful Viennese faces.

In the foreground stands Johann Strauss Vater with his 3 sons, Johann, Josef snd Eduard. At the front painter Hans Makart holds a Radetzky March flyer, calling the crowd to celebrate music, the Art and Vienna itself
