Wordless Wednesday: Cubist Lamp Post

Looking upwards near the base of the zig-zagging structure of the cubist lamp post in Prague.  We see a blue sky with wispy clouds and older buildings above and to the sides, respectively.

The Cubist Lamp Post in Prague, Czech Republic. The only one of its kind and an example of Czech Cubism in design and architecture.

    What a fantastic angle in your photo! And the small round window and the curved
    entrance it’s a balance inside all the straight lines!
    Happy WW, CatSynth! A fine week ahead!

    Prague, beauty at every step. Cobbled streets, elegant façades, and bridges that make you stop and look a little longer.
    Happy WW 🤗

    I like it! It contrasts, too, with the building behind it.

      It’s in New Town, not far from Wenceslas Square.
      I was specifically focused on modernism, so did a self-guided walking tour for buildings and locations featuring Czech Cubism.
