A Biedermeier Apartment with Wall Paintings by Josef Navrátil
On the first floor of the historic Vávra’s Mill, originally the residence of the miller Václav Michalovice, the National Technical Museum presents the exhibition “A Biedermeier Apartment with Wall Paintings by Josef Navrátil.”
The preserved interior paintings from 1847 represent one of the most remarkable examples of middle-class culture of the Biedermeier period in Prague. Their author, the prominent Czech painter Josef Navrátil, was among the most sought-after artists of the first half of the 19th century. The historic salons are now complemented by period furnishings and a new intimate exhibition introducing Navrátil’s work in the Petrská quarter as well as the breadth of his artistic output.
