Oldřich Kulhánek was a master of depicting figures, subtle nuances of facial expressions, gestures, touches and all the folds of the human body. It is no surprise that an artist of such extraordinary quality became the author of the form of the current banknotes of the Czech Republic. Such a task is worthy of a master-quality graphic artist. Kulhánek's work stands out precisely because of the combination of technically perfect form and suggestive expression, which takes on positions ranging from grotesque and ironic to neoclassical and erotic visions. Interview no. 1 is a time-lapse of the expressions of Fernandel, a French actor and singer, whose popularity was mainly contributed by the role of Don Camillo, who in a series of films fought a duel with the communist mayor Peppone in a small Italian town.
