Anna-Lülja Praun was born in Sankt Petersburg, Russia, in 6/29/1906 and lived in Vienna until 9/28/2004. She was an important Austrian designer and architect and she was one of the first females who studied architecture in Austria.

In 1959 she designed a bench „Bank zum Ausruhen“ for the conductor Herbert von Karajan.
