Description from the seller

Tibor Honty - Mourning day

cca 1970, gelatin-silver print, 23 x 18 cm, artist stamp on the verso, unframed


Tibor Honty (1907 - 1968)
Tibor Honty was a Czech-Slovak photographer whose work has been gaining renewed attention for its quiet clarity and lyrical sense of form. Born in Skalica, Slovakia, in 1907, he studied at the School of Arts and Crafts in Bratislava from 1930 to 1933, a school often called the “Slovak Bauhaus” for its forward-thinking approach to art and design and its engagement with European modernist movements.

Honty’s photographs carry a sense of quiet attention. He found rhythm in the lines of buildings and subtle beauty in everyday life, often capturing street scenes, industrial sites, and rural environments with a refined sense of geometry and atmosphere.
