Cosima's Diaries

Diary Entry of October 11, 1875

Overview

R. dreams of a beautiful mountain landscape in the Harz and calls me to share it, though I am at first occupied elsewhere before I finally turn to admire the Brocken with him. The rest of the day is quieter, filled with work around the children and the routine reading of the Annals.

Monday, October 11:

R. dreamed he was in Hülsen (Uelsen) in Hanover and was admiring the fine houses, the lovely views, a magnificent mountain landscape. He called me to look at it; it was the Harz Mountains, but I was busy with something. Then he called me again, saying I could see the Brocken, which tempted me to come, and I gazed on it, smiling.

Worked with the children. In the evening, the Annals.
