EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate beauty of the 15th Century 19th Century 1870 Angel Apostle Astronomical Clock in Prague, Czech Republic. The clock, also known as the Orloj, is a masterpiece of medieval craftsmanship and astronomical precision.
The dial of the clock features a complex mechanism with various circles and rings representing different astronomical measurements such as the position of the sun, moon, and stars. The apostle figures that flank the clock are beautifully sculpted and add to its overall grandeur.
This piece serves not only as a timekeeping device but also as a symbol of Prague's rich history and cultural heritage. It stands tall in the city council hall tower, overlooking the old town with its timeless elegance.
Created by renowned figure Josef Manes, this astronomical clock is a testament to human ingenuity and mathematical prowess during the Middle Ages. It serves as a reminder of our fascination with astronomy and our desire to understand our place in the universe.
As you gaze upon this photo print, you can't help but be transported back in time to an era where science and art were intricately intertwined. The Orloj remains a marvel of engineering and design that continues to captivate visitors from around the world.
