ZDENKA CERNY. 1913.
74 3/4x43 1/2 inches.
Condition B+: repaired tears in image affecting text; paper loss and tears in margins; creases in margins and image. Two-sheets. Hand signed in ink by Zdenka Cerny.
Zdenka Cerny was one of three daughters from the family Mucha lived with in Chicago in 1906. A prodigy with the cello, she was slated to go on a European tour in 1914, but the tour was canceled because of the outbreak of World War I. While "the Art Nouveau ornamentation is virtually absent, other than a circle of stylized fleurs-de-lis in white behind Zdenka, and a similar white-outline garland around her cello" Mucha's style is present in the woman's hair and the collar of her dress. Rennert/Weill 102.
