Description
The depiction of traditions, holidays, celebrations, and folk festivities has always attracted photographers. Photographs from the time of the monarchy capture how pilgrimages, carnivals, harvest festivals, and Christmas were celebrated in the past, reminding us that folklore also includes fairy tales and legends. Pavel Scheufler's new book, drawing from his well-known photographic collection, offers a glimpse into the world of customs and traditions at a time when such images strengthened national consciousness leading to the establishment of an independent republic. Folk costumes were proudly worn not only at ethnographic exhibitions, and memorable stories from Czech history came to life in music and painting, but also in photographs. ***** The publication follows the popular books Šumava za císaře pána, Pivo za císaře pána, Lázně za císaře pána, Krkonoše za císaře pána, and Praha za císaře pána.
