Libuše and Přemysl, Bronze sculpture in Vyšehrad, Czech Republic.

The outdoor sculpture features two standing figures representing the legendary Czech rulers cast in bronze by Josef Václav Myslbek in 1897.

The statue was relocated from Palacký Bridge to Vyšehrad after sustaining damage during American bombing in February 1945.

The sculpture depicts the union between Princess Libuše and Přemysl the Ploughman, who founded the Přemyslid dynasty in the 8th century.

Visitors can find the monument in Vyšehradské sady, a public park within the ancient fortress complex of Vyšehrad in Prague.

The statue forms part of a series of four mythological pairs created by Myslbek, originally designed to decorate Palacký Bridge.
