Urban Sketching: Františkánská zahrada

Let’s meet for an urban sketching session in Františkánská zahrada, a quiet garden tucked right into the center of the city. Even though it’s enclosed behind walls, it can get quite lively at times — people passing through, meeting on benches, or simply enjoying a break from the surrounding streets.

From the garden you can also catch a view of the Church of Our Lady of the Snows (Panny Marie Sněžné) rising above the trees, which adds a distinctive vertical element to the otherwise intimate space.

The mix of greenery, paths, surrounding façades and everyday movement makes it a nice place for observational drawing.
