'Hans Wulff was one of some 500 Germans who were living in Iran until they were interned by British military authorities during the Second World War and transported to Loveday. They spent most of the rest of the war in Loveday. Wulff was born in Lüdinghausen in Germany in 1907. He studied Mechanical Engineering, but he also showed a great gift for languages and for the craft of goldsmithing. From 1936 he lived and worked in Iran, enough time for him to become fluent in Persian. Things changed dramatically in August 1941 with the British invasion of Iran from Iraq. Like other German men he was transported by the British military to Basra in Iraq, and from there they were shipped to Australia via India. In Loveday Wulff taught jewellery making and goldsmithing to fellow internees. After release from internment in 1946 he was given the choice of remaining in Australia, which he accepted, working hard to raise the money to bring his wife and three children to join him from Germany. For a time he taught Mechanical Engineering at the University of New South Wales while retaining and expanding his interest in Persian arts and crafts, an area in which he successfully completed a PhD. That thesis was the basis for his 400-page opus magnum The Traditional Crafts of Persia, Their Development, Technology, and Influence on Eastern and Western Civilizations, published in 1966. Sadly, he died just a year later. He was in Pakistan leading an Australian team funded by the Smithsonian on the second leg of an operation to record and salvage the crafts of the Middle East' John E.

*** ORIGINALAUSGABEN (UNIKATE?; keine weiteren Exemplare durch Onlinerecherche nachweisbar), MIT HUNDERTEN ORIGINAL-FARBFOTOGRAFIEN; ohne Hinweise auf Herausgeber und Fotografen, aber augenscheinlich aus einer Quelle, mit direktem Zugang zu allen Prominenten und Veranstaltungen/Räumlichkeiten: Verschieden-einfarbige Ringbücher (schwarz; / bordeauxrot / pink / schwarz / orange / lila) mit 'SemperOpernball'-Logo auf den Vorderdeckeln; Quer-Folio (je Album ca. 33 x 36 x 3 cm; insgesamt ca. 15 kg.). - TADELLOS ERHALTEN. --- Höhepunkt des jährlich unter einem anderen Motto stehenden Dresdner Opernballs ist die Verleihung des 'Dresdner St. Georgs Ordens des SemperOpernballs' (bis 2009 'Sächsischer Dankorden . . .'), dessen entsprechend einem der wertvollsten Schmuckstücke des Grünen Gewölbes von Georg H. Leicht gefertigte Medaille mit dem Bildnis des Heiligen Georg zu Pferde und dem Wahlspruch ''Adverso Flumine''(lateinisch für ''Gegen den Strom'') in den Kategorien 'Sport', 'Kultur' und 'Politik' an Persönlichkeiten verliehen wird, die sich um Deutschland, die neuen Bundesländer und um Sachsen verdient gemacht haben [sollen]. Die Verleihung des Ordens an den damaligen russischen Ministerpräsidenten Wladimir Putin im Jahr 2009 und die Laudatio des damaligen Ministerpräsidenten Tillich ernteten viel Kritik; daraufhin wurde der Preis ab 2010 in 'St. Georgs Orden' umbenannt. Aus den jeweiligen Jahren sind die Preisverleihungen mit den dazwischen stattfindenden Show-Acts und die Preisträger ausführlich abgebildet (2007: Maximilian Schell, Hans-Dietrich Genscher, Franz Beckenbauer; 2008: Kurt Masur, Lothar de Maizière, Henry Maske; 2009: Joachim Fuchsberger, Wladimir Putin, Matthias Steiner; 2010: Kurt Biedenkopf, [José Carreras und Michael Jackson postum, vertreten durch seine Schwester La Toya ohne Abbildung]; 2011: Til Schweiger, Roman Herzog, Bob Geldof; 2012: Ornella Muti, Khaldoon Khalifa Al Mubarak [ägyptischer Ökonom], Helene Fischer, Roger Moore). Ausführlich dokumentiert werden auch der prachtvolle Debütantenball und der 'Semper Openairball' unter freiem Himmel vor der Semperoper, die beide wichtige Bestandteile der Veranstaltung sind. …
