I do like the fact that it's like a window into the past since you carefully avoided modern content.
It's a good shot.

Agreed, it is a very nice picture. As George said spectacles are nothing new, I wonder if there was a branch of Specsavers in 1820s Vienna - if so Schubert probably used Pentax lenses.
