Description
Artist: Frantisek Drtikol (Czech, 1883 - 1961).
Title: "Nu sinueux [Modernist nude study]".
Medium: Original vintage photogravure.
Date: Composed c1925. Printed 1933.
Dimensions: Image size: 9 7/16 x 7 7/16 in. (240 x 189 mm).
Lot Note(s): Signature stamp, lower right recto; copyrighted in the negative, lower right. Edition unknown, presumed small. High-grade archival paper. Printed to the edge of the sheet. Fine, quality printing. Very good to fine condition; affixed to very thin and supple archival acid-free support sheet, not mount/board. Comment(s): Drtikol’s nudes show development from pictorialism and symbolism to modern composite pictures of the nude body, with geometric decorations and thrown shadows, where one finds a number of parallels with the avant-garde works of his epoch. These often are reminiscent of Cubism, and at the same time the nudes suggest the kind of movement that was characteristic of the futurism aesthetic.
