Bohumil Stepan: Sister Amalie with 'square head covered by tablecloth', ca 1971
'Bohumil Stefans Verrücktes Cabinet.'
Photocollage by Bohumil Stepan (1913-1985) from the Family Album of Oddities (1971). His work is inspired by Dada and Surrealism and is often satirical.
“Sister Amalie could not marry because she had a square head. But with a tablecloth she looked very respectable. A young man even shot himself because of her (when she removed the tablecloth).”
This silver gelatine print on mat Agfa-Brovira photo paper is an early reproduction made by the artist himself.
Print is in very good condition.
ca. 11,7 x 16 cm
