杯子
c. 1936
Before becoming a legendary Czech photographer, Joseph Sudek trained in the applied arts, and this charming sketch reveals his eye for everyday objects. Created around 1936, it’s a design proposal for a teacup, featuring a delicate blue landscape scene with a bridge and cottages that mimics the look of traditional Delftware pottery. You can see the artist’s practical side in the handwritten 'Full Size' note next to the main cup, along with a smaller study below to show different angles. It’s a sweet, quiet moment of design history from a man usually known for his moody, atmospheric photographs.
