It is no exaggeration to call Praha (Czech for Prague) one of the most beautiful cities in the world; few places possess such atmosphere and history, such magnificent art and architecture. Part of its allure comes from its extraordinarily eclectic layers: a single vista can encompass soaring Gothic turrets, voluted Baroque gables, colorful Art Nouveau mosaics and jutting Cubist façades. Its museums and galleries hold masterpieces from medieval paintings to the latest in contemporary art, and many are found in buildings as fascinating as their collections. This guide introduces travellers to Bohemian art and architecture in and around Prague, a world until recently little known beyond the Czech borders. Prague provides a fascinating art historical context, explaining history, styles, patrons, and artists to give a sense of Prague's artistic development and character, as well as a taste of the post-modern mix of the contemporary city. Easy-to-follow trails lead through different sections of the city and nearby towns, pointing out and discussing outstanding art, architecture, galleries, and museums along the most evocative and interesting routes.
