To a lady. "Empfangen Sie meinen herzlichen Dank für die Photographie, die mir mit dem Bilde Hedwig Paula Conrads zugleich auch eine meiner glücklichsten Theaterstücke ins Gedächtniß zurückgerufen hat .." - The Austrian actress Paula Conrad (1860-1938), which Fontane highly valued, belonged to the ensemble of the Berlin Imperial Playhouse since 1880.
