Hall with fireplace & Reception and music room with family portraits, 2012
Two pigmented inkjet prints on Hahnemühle paper, 26 x 36.5 cm

The prints show two pages from the article "Apartment of a Viennese Architect" published in Innenarchitektur magazine in 1930. Views of Schwadron's own penthouse apartment are accompanied by a text written by himself. Visible in the photograph of the great hall (left) is a carpet designed by Erna Lederer, Schwadron's first wife. In the second picture we see a wall with family portraits. These family portraits – or rather a photograph of these paintings taken from the same angle – I would find later in a picture taken in the only house Schwadron built in the US, his home in upstate New York which he called "Dream Lake".
