Belvedere Palace

Upper Palace - Marble Hall

 

The ceiling fresco shows Eugene (in the center, wearing blue and pink) about to be crowned with a laurel wreath for his military victory and contribution to Vienna... It's strewn with images of war in which the adversaries wear lots of turbans, as some of Austria's enemies were Muslims. - Rick Steves
