Volume XXXVII (year 1922) of Moderni revue. The monthly art magazine Moderni revue (Modern Review for Literature, Art, and Life) - founded by A. Prochazka and J. Karasek in 1893 - played a key role in development of the new literature and also modern typography and ilustration in the Czech countries at the end of 19th century. This journal was a major institution of Czech Modernism, in which many young authors made their debut, topical discussions on contemporary art took place, and new standards were set in book ilustration. MR played an important role in the internationalization of Bohemian culture at the turn of the century.
