EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the enchanting city of Prague in 1890. The image showcases the magnificent Gothic Church of Our Lady before Tyn, standing proudly in the heart of the Old Town Square. With its towering spires and intricate architectural details, this 12th-century masterpiece is a true testament to the beauty of medieval craftsmanship. The photograph, taken from "Cassells Illustrated Universal History" by Edmund Ollier, captures not only the church but also provides a glimpse into daily life during that era. In the foreground, we see a handcart being pushed along by an unknown figure, adding a touch of human presence amidst this historic landscape. Prague's Great Square serves as an open-air memorial to centuries past, where history intertwines with religion and culture. This monochrome engraving beautifully conveys both the grandeur and serenity found within this capital city. The viewer is transported into another time as they take in every detail captured by an anonymous creator. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing vista, it becomes clear why Prague has long been considered one of Europe's most picturesque cities. Its timeless charm continues to captivate visitors from around the world even today. This print serves as a window into Prague's rich heritage and invites us to explore its streets steeped in history and tradition.
