Hardcover. Black cloth boards with silver embossed lettering on spine, tan pictorial dustjacket with mylar covering, 150 pp., chiefly bw illutrations. A visual tribute to the life and work of Czech photographer Josef Sudek (1896-1976). "The Biographical Profile was adapted from an extensive manuscript on the life and work of Josef Sudek by Anna Farova." (tp verso). In a career that spanned nearly seven decades, Josef Sudek, one of the masters of twentieth-century photography, created his own solitary world of shadow and light, of theme and variation. Exquisitely reproduced in tritone, the more than one hundred images in this monograph convey the spirit of Prague as well as the spirit of Sudek. The photographs are complemented with a text by Anna Farova, one of the foremost photography curators and writers in Eastern Europe and a longtime friend of Sudek's. She traces his life and work, beginning with the devastation of World War I, in which he lost an arm, through his development as a photographer and a central figure in Prague's artistic life. Sudek's passionate, impressionist images, as well as his penchant for exploration, earned him the affectionate title "Poet of Prague." VG (in excellent condition, like new). Seller Inventory # 113392
