View in Prague - The Bridge Tower, 1890 - A Glimpse into Gothic Majesty
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the enchanting city of Prague in the late 19th century. Standing tall and proud is the iconic Bridge Tower, a magnificent Gothic monument that has graced the Charles Bridge for centuries. Its origins trace back to the late 14th century when Emperor Charles IV commissioned its construction, with renowned architect Petr Parler at the helm. The image captures not only the architectural grandeur of this historic bridge tower but also offers a glimpse into daily life during that era. In the background, we see people going about their day, adding a touch of realism to this monochrome masterpiece. The photograph is extracted from "Cassells Illustrated Universal History" an esteemed volume by Edmund Ollier that delves into Europe's Middle Ages. This particular edition was published in London, Paris, and Melbourne in 1890 by Cassell and Company Limited. As we immerse ourselves in this visual treasure trove of history and artistry, it becomes evident why Prague continues to captivate visitors even today. Its rich heritage seamlessly blends with breathtaking landscapes and timeless architecture like the Bridge Tower – an enduring symbol of medieval charm standing against time's relentless march forward.
