Veranda of the Sacher Hotel, Philharmonikerstraße, Vienna White table and chairs. Photographed on 28 March 2010 I learned of that little bit of lore from Thomas Bernhard's "Wittgenstein's Nephew" (where he calls the back front of the opera house den "Arsch der Oper"). If you are not yet familiar with Bernhard's writing, this autobiographical novella is a good way to start. https://www.goodreads.com/.../92578.Wittgenstein_s_Nephew
