As well to be admired are the graphic portrait of Pjetër Bogdani and Dr. Marianne Graf, President of the Albanian- Partnership Board, as well as the drawing of „Die Braut von Mitrovica“. All three have been published in various media. It is the third exhibit of Gazmend Freitag’s work in the Albanian Embassy.
