At the beginning of the century, Frantisek Drtikol was also part of the international pictorialist movement. During this period, he created a number of photographs using very elaborate techniques, such as this two-color oil pigment print on thin Japanese paper. His artistic ideas are already evident here. From this point on, he often combines female nudes in expressive gestures and movements with dramatic lighting effects. With this image, he also managed to transform a relatively simple subject into a dynamic and at the same time humorous gesture.
