Description
This is a superb two city view of Prague and Eger. At top is a panoramic bird's eye view of the Chech capital of Prague situated on the banks of the River Vltava and surrounded by verdant hillsides of the Vltava Valley. The three distinct sections of the city are visible in the view: the Stare Mesto (Old Town) surrounding the Vysehrad (high castle), the Nove Mesto (New Town), and the Mala Strana (Lesser Quarter) clustered around the Prague Castle. The Charles Bridge connects the Mala Strana to the Nove Mesto. Much of this development dates from the reign of Charles IV (1346-78). Below is a view of the western Chech city of Cheb, Eger in German. The Imperial Palace dominates the view. Text on verso.
