Knight of Autumn (1971).
A pair of intaglio prints by a Czech illustrator and ex libris artist whose work helped sustain that strand of Surrealism which has never quite expired in Eastern Europe. These are from a larger selection of prints found here, and the tip comes via the ~Wunderkammer~.
Mirrors II (1986).

pe-jota captures my sensibility – personally, and socially, the fragility of life implicit in ‘Knight of Autumn’ feels ever so apt.
