EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting city of Prague in 1943, showcasing the iconic King Charles Bridge from its Old Town end. The bridge, a true testament to medieval architecture and engineering marvels, was initiated during the reign of Charles IV, who was both the King of Bohemia and Holy Roman Emperor. Constructed with stone and spanning an impressive length of 516 meters, it boasts 16 arches adorned with ice guards. Flanking this magnificent structure are two rows of statues; fifteen on each side. These statues add an air of grandeur and mystique to the already awe-inspiring scene. As we gaze upon this image captured by Signal magazine in February 1943 – a publication associated with Germany's Third Reich during World War II – we can't help but appreciate the timeless beauty that transcends political boundaries. The photograph showcases not only architectural brilliance but also offers a glimpse into history itself. It allows us to witness how Prague's rich heritage has endured through centuries, surviving wars and political changes. This particular print from Heritage Images serves as a reminder that art knows no bounds or affiliations; it is meant to be appreciated for its intrinsic value. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time, let us immerse ourselves in the splendorous Gothic domes and towers that dominate Prague's skyline. Let us celebrate the enduring spirit of human creativity encapsulated within these ancient walls while acknowledging their historical context without endorsing any commercial use or political agenda associated with them
