Summary / Abstract (Note) | THIS GREAT PATRON OF THE ARTS lives in the small Principality of Liechtenstein high up in the mountains. His villa is hidden from prying eyes by cascading wisteria blooms and the spreading branches of an ancient spruce tree. To reach it, you need to follow the steeply climbing road from the center of Vaduz and, right before castle, take a barely perceptible turn to the left. This will lead you to the baron's villa, at the entrance of which is a sign "Askania-Nova" portraying the head of a horse. The host's favorite place is in the living room on a couch by the huge window that affords a magnificent view of the Swiss Alps. |
