Why It’s Worth Your Time
Alphonse Mucha (1860–1939) is Prague's most celebrated visual artist, known for defining the Art Nouveau style with his distinctive flowing illustrations of Sarah Bernhardt and Parisian women. The dedicated Mucha Museum near Wenceslas Square holds original lithographs, posters, paintings, and personal photographs in an intimate setting. For a deeper dive, the Slav Epic — Mucha's monumental 20-canvas cycle — is displayed at the Veletržní palác branch of the National Gallery.
