Antonín Kybal (1901 - 1971) LARGE ZEBRA CARPET

A custom-tied carpet according to the design and from the workshop of Antonín Kybal with the motif of zebra stripes and targets was made for JUDr. Jiří Kallmünzer. A Prague lawyer had a carpet made to order for his apartment in a building on Chotkova Street. We also have documented family photographs from this time. Antonín Kybal also used the graphic pattern to print textiles around 1936. According to an expert opinion, the carpet is in excellent condition and comes from the 1930s of Kybal's work, which is his absolute creative peak. Three years later, due to the political situation, Antonín Kybal closes all his workshops and only operates a studio in the house, also in Chotkova Street. The authenticity is confirmed by the heir PhDr Lucia Vlčková, an expert report has been drawn up for the work by academic painter Ludmila Kaprasová.
