The archive begins with a simple observation: a city is more than its landmarks. The spaces between monuments — courtyards, embankments, streets and rooflines — reveal how people experience a place over time.
What you will find
Our pages pair original illustrations with concise, accessible writing about Prague and the wider geography of the Vltava. The visuals are artistic studies, not historical photographs or documentary evidence.
Why the river?
The Vltava crosses different landscapes and urban histories. In Prague, it becomes a recurring point of reference: a place to cross, a line of orientation and a changing view of the city.
