Daisy Mrázková was a Czech writer, artist, author of books for children. The work of Daisy Mrázková represents a unique journey from woodcuts, through portraits to illustrations of children's books, which she also wrote. Jiřina Hauková or Jindřich Chalupecký served as her models, and her husband Jiří Mrázek provided artistic support. She gradually came to abstract work, where the submitted work Death of a Goalkeeper can also be embedded. It reflects the typical creative position of the author, who attaches extraordinary importance to color and its effect. The author's free work is rarely found on the market.
