“Černé jezero” (Jindřich Eckert, 1882)

On 28 February 1905 Jindřich Eckert, the most important personality of 19th century Czech photography and the very first Czech landscape photographer, died. At the beginning he was mainly a portrait photographer. In addition to classical portrait photography, he also created complex allegorical compositions and "revived scenes”. The most important part of his work today, however, is considered to be local history photography, primarily because of its great documentary importance. As early as 1871 he published a set of collotype photographs of Prague. After 1881, he was the first in Bohemia to produce photographs depicting the artistic and natural beauty of Bohemian landscape. Between 1882 and 1884, for example, he created sets of photographs of Bohemian Forest and the Giant Mountains. After 1890, he also devoted himself significantly to photographing Prague, especially documenting places destined for redevelopment.

destroyed church San Giovanni in Tuba (Jindřich Bišický, December 1917)

On 11 February 1889, Czech war photographer Jindřich Bišický was born. Although he is the author of many unique photographs, his name remained unknown until 2009, when he was identified by a happy coincidence at the large exhibition "On Foot through the First World War: Through the Lens of an Unknown Soldier".

The Prague astronomical clock is a medieval astronomical clock attached to the Old Town Hall in Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic.

The clock was first installed in 1410, making it the third-oldest astronomical clock in the world and the oldest clock still in operation.

The clock mechanism has three main components – the astronomical dial, representing the position of the Sun and Moon in the sky and displaying various astronomical details; statues of various Catholic saints stand on either side of the clock; "The Walk of the Apostles", an hourly show of moving Apostle figures and other sculptures, notably a figure of a skeleton that represents Death, striking the time; and a calendar dial with medallions representing the months. According to local legend, the city will suffer if the clock is neglected and its good operation is placed in jeopardy; a ghost, mounted on the clock, was supposed to nod its head in confirmation. According to the legend, the only hope was represented by a boy born on New Year's night.
