Costume de garçon
c. 1939
Most people know Josef Sudek for his moody, black-and-white photographs of Prague, making this vibrant color design a rare and delightful surprise. Titled 'Boy’s Suit,' the artwork features a headless figure floating in space, dressed in a flamboyant 18th-century style outfit with a deep blue embroidered coat, bright red breeches, and elaborate white lace ruffles. Created around 1939, the missing head gives the piece a surreal, modernist twist, turning a historical costume sketch into a ghostly fashion statement that feels both elegant and slightly eerie.
