St. Vitus Cathedral (Katedrála svatého Víta)

Rose window & The Mosaic of the Last Judgement
Just above the Golden Portal there is the 14th century Venetian art masterpiece, a mosaic of the Last Judgement polished with gold.The rose window is maybe the most beautiful example of stained glass craft in Prague. It is rather new, dating from the 1920s and represents scenes from the biblical “Creation”.In the 1920s the sculptor Vojtěch Sucharda worked on the façade, and the famous Czech Art Nouveau painter Alfons Mucha decorated the new windows in the north part of nave. Frantisek Kysela designed the Rose Window 1925-7 which depicts scenes from the Biblical story of creation.
