Destiny Walks Down To The River, Leading Two Innocent Children
1970. Vintage silver gelatin photograph, signed in ink on image lower right, captioned in pencil by Saudek’s agent on mount below image, 20.6 x 30.9. Slight silvering to image edges. Illustrated in Mrázková, Jan Saudek, 2006, p80. Inspired by Steichen’s Family of Man exhibition during its tour in 1963, Saudek began to pursue art photography as a career. In Prague, he was forced to work in a clandestine manner to avoid the secret police, as his work turned to themes of eroticism and political corruption. From the late 1970s he gradually became recognised in the West as the leading Czech photographer, and also developed a following among photographers in his own country. Ref: Wiki.
