AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
140 black-and-white photographs of Károl Kállay
Condition: only minor wear on the edges of the cover, otherwise in very good and nice condition!
English, German, Russian and French summary/résumé
The publication presents a comprehensive view of the work of Karol Kállay, one of the most important Slovak photographers of the 20th century. Ľudovít Hlaváč analyzes Kállay’s work ranging from documentary and reportage photography to fashion and artistic images. He emphasizes the photographer’s ability to capture atmosphere, people, and the transformations of modern society. The book is complemented by rich visual material illustrating the development of Kállay’s style and the thematic breadth of his work, making it not only an artistic monograph but also an important resource for the history of photography.
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.
