Giuseppe Arcimboldo (1526–1593) was an Italian Renaissance painter best known for creating imaginative portrait heads made entirely of objects such as fruits, vegetables, flowers, fish and books.

Elizabeth of #Bohemia, who died OTD in 1330, was a princess of the Přemyslid dynasty; she became queen consort of Bohemia as the 1st wife of King John the Blind https://cromwell-intl.com/travel/czech-republic/prague/?s=mb #travel #Prague
Wenceslaus I was the kníže or duke of #Bohemia; OTD in 935 three companions of his younger brother, Boleslav the Cruel, stabbed him to death, then Boleslav ran him through with a lance https://cromwell-intl.com/travel/czech-republic/prague/?s=mb #travel #history #Prague
The interior of the New stage of the National theatre was also used as a mystical staircase in later episodes...

I just watched the second season of the #Foundation #series.
I very quickly realized it was shot in #Czechia. Everyone living in #Prague have to recoginze the New stage of National theatre and the old building of National theatre in the background.

Going to visit #Prague very soon. Anything essential I should see, do or taste there?
These two sculptures by David Černý are quite iconic. But that guy is all over #Prague. Many cities have polluted their public spaces with what they thought was contemporary #PublicArt in the last three decades. But the first thing that suffers under the density of this arbitrary ensemble are the artworks themselves. #Hannover is a particularly bad example. And it is very hard to get rid of these sculptures once they are built.


Anti-globalization protests in #Prague involving some 20,000 protesters turned violent OTD in 2000 during the IMF and World Bank summits https://cromwell-intl.com/travel/czech-republic/prague/?s=mb #travel #history

Are you planning to be in #Prague in mid-October? Come with me on a 25-minute journey to discover where all the fun (of working in hashtag#IT) went and how to bring it back into your work life.
Before the time machine become truth, the alternative way is to discover some two decades old photos. It is just a simple digitalised 35mm negative, although the quality isn't impressive but still able to bring back some memory. 🤓

Ah you have to love #prague for its fantastic public transportation system. From Airport to city center in no time!
But it made me all the more pleased to see the latest updates on #nttw7 in my inbox this morning. The preliminary program is here and looks great: https://bit.ly/nttw7program. I really enjoy this conference, and I'm excited to attend in person again in #Prague (probably my favorite city period). But if in person is something you cannot or do not want to do, No Time to Wait has always done a great job of supporting remote participation. There is still time to sign up: https://bit.ly/nttw7signup

If I ever move somewhere where those things are not tourist traps, I'll have a lot to unlearn.

The school year started and I immediately started to feel increased aggression on #Prague roads.
On the #bike commute from office:
1️⃣ driver yelled at me for no reason (he was just passing by in other direction)
2️⃣ driver honked at me because he was impatient to slow down for 100m on a steep climb (there was no way of letting him pass)
3️⃣ driver honked at me when I was waiting on red lights to move me away, because he entered the previos junction even though there was no room and blocked it.
If you are in #Prague this weekend and love #beer, join me: https://nomadbeerfestival.cz/home-en/. This is a must-go festival. 20+ nomad breweries + music + food.
Btw #Prague is the only city in the EU having cinema equipped with projector for 70mm film. And there are around 30 such cinemas in the world. Thus there was a lot of foreigners waiting for the movie, that are returning home very sad...
I just saw first 3 minutes of #Oppenheimer in Imax. Then they stopped the screening because of failed subtitles synchronisation. After an hour of trying to rewind the film they cancelled the show.

✡️ Today's Jew of the Day is Franz Kafka!
Frankz Kafka was one of the most important authors of the 20th Century. Trained as a lawyer in Prague during the Austria-Hungarian empire, he found much of his work and the society of his day to be confusing and dehumanizing. He would transfer those themes into his writing, which often contain themes of alienation, anxiety, guilt, and a general sense of deliberate crushing absurdity.
Today Kafka's work stands out amongst 20th century writers not only for its critique of modern society, but the ways that Kafka turned this tragedy into surreal comedy, a literary technique that's used commonly today.

When in Prague, we got to do a tour of the Strahov Monastery library. We had 15 minutes in each room and it was amazing, better than the Klementinum Library, which you weren’t even allowed to go into.
I got pictures, saw a secret passage, and it was just nice to be in the library without other people. It was beautiful and serene.
I think I'm going to start going out of my way to see libraries at all the places we visit. This one was well worth it.
The #coop which owns the #EuropeanSleeper company is raising 3 M€ in capital to fund the #NightTrain service from #Brussels to #Barcelona and #Prague.
I bought a few shares because their success would help me #StayGrounded. (Also, how cool is it to own a #train [lease, fraction of]?)
It's a high risk investment. No profits expected for years with favourable track prices. No membership/voting rights under 26 k€ invested. Check bylaws etc. in "legal" and "community" tabs.

'It read: “We are going to die for #Hungary and for #Europe .”
The #Czech writer Milan #Kundera started his 1984 essay The Tragedy of Central Europe with this message. As one of the leading figures of the #1968 #Prague Spring, Kundera understood what the brave #Hungarian had meant by dying for Europe. As a #Ukrainian writer in Kyiv in 2022, I can’t stop thinking about Kundera, writing in exile after the Prague Spring failed. ' (cont.)

The Vltava is the longest river within the Czech Republic, running southeast along the Bohemian Forest and then north across Bohemia, through Český Krumlov, České Budějovice and Prague, and finally merging with the Elbe at Mělník. It is commonly referred to as the "Bohemian sea" and the "Czech national river".
