Weiner or Hamburger Schnitzel (1868)

[Wilson Gray]

According to Wikipedia, as cited by Barry, the Schnitzel Holsteiner
Art is breaded, whereas the Hamburger schnitzel is not. "Breaded"
corresponds to the Holsteiner schnitzel as I've experienced it both in
Germany and in the States. I'm not familiar with the Hamburger
schnitzel.
