A two-volume monograph of the photographic work of František Drtikol. The text for the book was written by the world-renowned art historian Anna Fárová, PhDr. Anna Fárová (1928-2010). The publication presents the most comprehensive cross-section of the most important and essential work of Drtikol's photographic oeuvre. The pictorial material was drawn mainly from the collection of the Museum of Decorative Arts in Prague (which owns the largest collection of Drtikol's photographs in the world) and also from some important private collections.

It was printed with Heidelberg's frequency-modulated Satin Screening raster. The book's 33 x 24.5 cm format allowed most of the photographs to be published at their actual size. The two-volume book, including the elegant slipcase, weighs almost 5 kg.
