Wittgenstein

DARE TO TAKE A LOOK BEHIND THE SALON DOORS OF THE WITTGENSTEIN FAMILY! The Wittgenstein family was one of the most socially significant families of the 20th century. The wealthy industrialist family produced, for example, the PHILOSOPH LUDWIG WITTGENSTEIN, and his brother Paul - despite losing his right arm in the war - became a celebrated pianist. Karl Wittgenstein, the father of the family, was a committed and generous patron of the arts and supported, among others, the artists of the WIENER SECESSION and the WIENER WERKSTÄTTE. The INTELLECTUAL AND ARTISTIC ELITE OF EUROPE frequented the Palais Wittgenstein. Well-known names such as PAUL ENGELMANN, LUDWIG HÄNSEL and RUDOLF KODER belonged to the close circle of friends. DIVING INTO THE COSMOS OF LUDWIG WITTGENSTEIN Ludwig Wittgenstein grew up in this philosophically and artistically stimulating climate. Later he became ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT PHILOSOPHES.
