  1. Beautiful... I had never seen this book before, thanks for posting! Coincidentally, my last safari features musical animals, but not quite as surreal as Květa's.

  7. Thank you all for the kind comments. Troesmas/Chuki, thanks and I'll head over to see the lubok post now.

    I have one more equally-surreal 70s work by Kveta which I hope to feature soon. It is her section of the anthology 'Broukalo si deset brouku.'

  12. Very cool, but a metronome is more of a torture device than it is an instrument.

  15. These remind me of Terry Gilliam's animations from Monty Python. I wonder if this inspired him.
