Prague... some art

As i told you before the influence of the Art Nouveau movement and Alphonse Maria Mucha`s style is very present in Praga, you will find it even in restaurant`s menus.

If you want to see the work of one of the most influential artist of the Art Nouveau movement they have a Mucha`s Museum.

Mucha`s Museum

It is an intimate and tiny museum that displays a good collection of his work, draws, sketches and other designs and elements influenced by Mucha`s work.

Mucha`s print art

As in many museums you cannot take pictures but i can show you these postcards i got of the models he used for his work.

Models posing in Mucha`s studio, Rue du Val-de-Grace, Paris, 1899

Also these postcards of Sara Bernhardt prints he made for her theater presentations.

La dame aux camélias 1896, Hamlet 1899, Gismonda 1894.

But one thing i must to say about the museum... the staff who works there is unbelievable rude, i witnessed speechless how they literally yelled at tourist because they do not had change for the tickets or just the incorrect tickets or just demanding information... incredible... i left the place with an uneasy feeling.

Sara Bernhardt, French stage and early film actress.

You will find small galleries around the center not so much as in Berlin but some and i had the chance to see this interesting exhibition in the street hall of a building.
