Description: Baltimore MD - Haussner's Restaurant - ADVERTISING: Marcel Brunery "Art Critics": Haussner's Restaurant was opened by William Henry Haussner in 1926 and became one of Baltimore's most famous landmarks over the next 73 years. In addition to 'old-world' style food, including Baltimore's finest crab cakes, the restaurant housed a large collection of fine art, which decorated the walls. The art had been acquired over the years by William Henry Haussner's wife, Frances Wilke Haussner, who bought their first painting in 1939, "Venetian Flower Vendor," by Eugene de Blaas (1843-1932). Over the next 73 years, the Haussner's acquired over 100 pieces, including highly important works by 19th-century European and American masters. The restaurant was closed in 1999, and the collection, which included pieces from the estates of J.P. Morgan, Cornelius Vanderbilt and Henry Walters, was auctioned by Sotheby's in New York City for $10 million. This Photochromatic postcard uses an oil painting by Marcel Brunery "The Art Critics" where a number of Vatican clerics argue the merits of a painting. The card is in good condition.
