Diary Entry of November 29, 1875
Semper’s birthday was marked with an evening gathering at his daughter’s home, where professors and friends met in a lively mood and R. was especially cheerful. The talk turned to Semper’s years in Dresden, with the Revolution looming large in their shared memories.

Today we celebrate Semper’s birthday; in the evening we are at his daughter’s house with several professors. R. is in a very merry mood. Master Semper likewise. They recall their experiences together in Dresden, particularly during the Revolution.
