Czech photographer Frantisek Drtikol (1883-1961) revolutionized nude photography in the early 20th century. His Prague studio, opened in 1907, produced nudes that reflected the Art Nouveau and Symbolism influences. Despite shifting to painting in 1935, his work gained renewed attention with a 1972 exhibition curated by Anna Fárová. Drtikol's photography incorporated interwar modernist idioms, combining silent film lighting, Futurism, Cubism, and Bauhaus aesthetics. This publication explores his evolutionary approach to nudes, from early enchanted figures to abstract, light-focused compositions, illustrating his dynamic interplay with modernist movements and solidifying his significance in photography.
