Sudek could take a very plain subject as here and elevate into a sublime emotionally charged landscape.

Josef Sudek (1896-1976) is one of the great masters of European 20th century photography who brought to the medium Pictorial, Abstract, Surreal, and Dada elements that would profoundly influence American photography. Around the beginning of World War II Sudek became fascinated with making contact prints. From then on, he rarely made enlargements, feeling that contact prints were closest to his ideal of the photographic image. He loved photographing the neighborhoods, architecture, monuments and parks of his native Prague and throughout his life the city was one of his favorite subjects. He photographed it in every season and weather, and at all times of the day.

Very Good. Light wear, soiling, handling mark right margin, stain verso
