| Prague is a beautiful, exciting city. Several years ago I visited there, and gathered a variety of reference material for
paintings. Since I was not painting many urban scenes at that time,
I painted only a few of the interesting people I saw there, but no city scenes.
This painting shows a view of the city from the Prague Castle,
high on the hill in the old town. It was a rather hazy day.
At the lower left of the painting, one
can see people crossing the Vitava River via the famous Charles
Bridge, with its beautiful gate houses at both ends. |
