About the book

“This is the first book ever to be published in the West (1976) on the art of the great Czech photographer Josef Sudek. One of the great masters of the 20th century photography — ranking alongside of Atget, Man Ray, Steichen, Steiglitz and Weston. Sudek’s work has rarely been seen outside Czechoslovakia”, writes Sonja Bullaty, Sudek’s friend and former assistant.
