Another publication of the publishing house Svět is a bibliophile edition of a facsimile of František Drtikol's working album, which is undoubtedly one of the jewels of his archive and has been part of the collection of the Museum of Decorative Arts in Prague since 1999. The album presents 973 small contact photographs, two dozen sketches of photographic compositions, including the author's notes. The book gives us a unique insight into the artist's artistic kitchen and is also an important comprehensive overview of his work, especially from the second half of the 1920s and 1930s. A special frequency-modulated raster developed by Heidelberg, Satin Screening (Satin medium), was used for the print, allowing its characteristics to be as close to the master as possible. The publication is published in 300 numbered copies and is accompanied by a slipcase with embossing, number of pages 176. Graphic design by Radana Lencová. Printed by AF BKK. Printed on Toccata mat paper, 250 g.
