Description from the seller
!!! Black-and-white photogravure prints !!!
Na řeku…! (1957) is a photographic book by the renowned Czech photographer Ladislav Sitenský, with accompanying text by Jindřich Pokorný. The volume presents a striking series of photogravure (intaglio) prints depicting the lives of boaters and river travelers on Czech rivers. The photographs, rendered in deep, richly textured tones, are complemented by concise commentary that evokes the atmosphere of untouched nature, waterborne adventures, and the rhythm of life on the river.
Published in hardcover by Sportovní a turistické nakladatelství in Prague, this title is rarely found on the market, making it a coveted collectible for enthusiasts of postwar Czech photography and fine press photographic books.
Seller's Story
I strive to find and offer you the most interesting items from Prague’s antiquarian bookstores and second-hand shops: autographs, rarities, photographs, bibliophilia, old prints, posters, maps, catalogs, high-quality or sold-out books, as well as fine art.
Prague has always been a meeting point of cultures and languages. Especially during the 20th century, Czechoslovakia was visited by numerous world-renowned artists, writers, scientists, and other notable figures who left their mark here and established connections with local culture or institutions. So the selection here will be rich in provenance — including German, French, English, Russian, or, for example, Italian.
However, I will also aim to highlight more or less well-known Czech artists and noteworthy items — of interest to collectors and art lovers, especially those passionate about autographs, fine art, and related fields.
