My Favorite Women in Prague, Today Anyway!

Today we visited the castles and cathedral of Prague. The stories are more than I could ever record here. Over 1,000 years of history is preserved and displayed in this most beautiful setting. One huge castle was for thirty single noble women who had fallen on hard times. Pictured is one of them. Looks like a really tough life, of course this was painted before she lost her throne and money! But still isn't she stunning? Every portrait of a woman guess what they were always wearing?... Pearls, pearls and more pearls! Of course so were the guys! A real fashion statement then and now.
Did I mention there was lots of music in Prague? Everywhere we went we saw evidence of some musical performance. This young lady was typical of what we saw on the public transportation as we went to our second concert. We heard Pacobel, Bach, Vivaldi and some composers I'd never heard of. You could attend some musical performance every afternoon and evening here for a very reasonable price, say $30 for the back seats on benches!
More treasures from the European spring buying trip!
