Sudek: Life in dates
Mionší Forest (Torst, 2009) is a striking photography book showcasing one of the most evocative bodies of work by the renowned Czech photographer Josef Sudek. It presents a series of black‑and‑white photographs of the primeval Mionší forest in the Beskydy Mountains, capturing its ancient trees, mysterious light, and atmospheric wilderness. This body of work is considered among Sudek’s most romantic and compelling nature cycles, revealing his deep fascination with forests, light, and natural forms. The book includes an introductory essay by photography historian Antonín Dufek and testimony by Petr Helbich, who accompanied Sudek on many of his trips into the Beskydy woods. Mionší Forest is printed in English and features a beautifully designed hardcover format with 84 pages of evocative imagery, making it a cherished volume for lovers of fine photography and natural landscapes.
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.
