Ceilings, plaster... Can't you just make it move faster?...

Lovely to be sitting here with you... You're kinda cute but it's raining harder...

Troja Palace is a Baroque palace located in Troja, Prague's north-west borough. It was built for the Counts of Sternberg from 1679 to 1691. The palace is owned by the city of Prague and hosts the 19th century Czech art collections of the City Gallery.

The stairs between the palace and the gardens are the work of two sculptors from Dresden: Johann Georg and Paul Heermann. They sculpted statues representing the fight of gods and giants. The terrace is decorated with a rare collection of vases made by Bombelli.

It's Independent Czechoslovak State Day which means they open up a bunch of state buildings to the public. This is the historic main meeting room of Škodův palác, which was once the head office for Škoda Works and is now the Prague Town Hall. Spectacularly fancy 1920's era rooms have been recently restored featuring wood panelling, enormous handmade rug, crystal chandeliers, imported granite, all kinds of shit that was popular after, you know, the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

The Bohemian Diet, the Czech parliament, met here until 1848. It was built in the same period as the adjoining room, the Vladislav Hall, namely around 1500.

This is a painting called Tři Přítelkyně (Three Friends) by Willi Nowak that is currently displayed in the National Gallery Prague, specifically in the Trade Fair Palace. I can't help but notice that the closest of the three women resembles Irene Adler from Sherlock BBC.
