'Dancing House' was the first building by any internationally famous architect in post-communist Prague. Frank Gehry joined forces with local architect Vlado Milunić to fill in a corner site, which stood empty for decades after controversial US bombing of Prague in 1945. Gehry originally named the building after dancers Fred & Ginger, from Golden Age Hollywood films. Since nobody in Czech Republic ever heard of them, the building is simply called 'Tančící dům' (Dancing House). I made this illustration as a wedding gift for a friend who lives in that Art Nouveau building next to it.
