Count Razumovsky, having started his Anti-Napoleonic mission estimated in 1803, commissioned therefor the most famous architect of his time, Louis Montoyer, to build a palace in ViennaĀ“s nearby, furthermore the most famous composer of his time, Ludwig van Beethoven, for to compose a cycle of three string quartets, the thesisĀ“ main objects: op. 59. The comparison of both masterworks, the palace and the string-quartet-compositions, unveil a thrilling accordance following the countĀ“s ideals and picture on the highest level of art and culture imaginable during that specific time under observance.
