From the friendship of two exceptional personalities - photographer Josef Sudek and architect Otto Rothmayer, a series of exceptional photographs from the charming garden of Rothmayer's house, where people of a similar mood gathered. The garden was full of all kinds of artefacts and as it changed over time and seasons, it enchanted Josef Sudek so much that he immortalised this magical world in the world in a series of photographs. Verso handwritten dedication.
