Erste Ausgabe. – „Although controversial in his early days, Jan Saudek, a former factory worker, is the most famous Czech photographer of nudes of the last forty years. In his black-and-white photographic sequences, hand-colored and reproduced in noumerous works … he presents scenes in the bare surroundings of his own basement, in sophisticated compositions featuring old-fashioned abjects alluding to Austro-Hungary, as seen in the popular imagination. Problematic men, grotesque women, and lascivious little children symbolically act out existential themes connected with relations between the sexes, eroticism, the passage of time, and death“ (A. Bertolotti zu „Le monde de Jan Saudek“, Genf 1980). – Sehr gutes Exemplar.
