Silver gelatine contact print, CZ, ~ 1920

Vintage silver gelatine contact print from former Czechoslovakia, showing Antonín Walpoupka’s brush maker workshop (Kartáčník*) in some Czech town or village. Three women proudly pose next the store’s entrance which is decorated by the makings of master Waloupka – brushes of various types and sizes. Date of imaging maybe the early or the mid 1920ies.
