Hundertwasser's comment on the work
Mountain formations have fascinated me ever since 1936, when I was seven and living in a home surrounded by mountains, each of which had very prominent, totally different facial contours. I went back there in 1998 with my friend the model builder Alfred Schmid to see it again, but couldn't find it. See JW 3 and also the odd similarity with 792.
