Kommentar:

The title, date, venue and time of this event were listed in the Tagesanzeiger text of Bohemia 8/1/1850. No further details were given by the source. This was the first major ball of the 1850 season (as opposed to a ‘musical trial’) to be reported by Bohemia or Prager Zeitung. Most of these events were not covered by periodical sources during 1850. Bohemia 17/2/1850 published news that during the Carnival season [from 7 January until Shrovetide] there had taken place 52 public balls and reunions, 96 private balls [Hausbälle] and entertainments, and 88 dance entertainments in hostelries [in Wirtshäusern].
