When the original decorative painted programme of 1911 by the artist Baron Arild Rosenkrantz (1870–1964), was restored in the entrance foyer of the Royal Academy of Music in 2007, two of the paintings belonging to the scheme remained unlocated. Artist and restorer Alan Bush painted 'Liebeslied' from a later illustration also by Rosenkrantz and published in 'The Tatler'. The original of this particular panel turned up in a farmhouse in Denmark at the eleventh hour, but could not be incorporated into the project. Alan Bush also painted the reconstructed panels of musical instruments.
