La Sécession à Prague explores how the Czech artistic community at the turn of the 20th century embraced and transformed the ideals of the Viennese Secession, developing a distinctly Prague-based version of Art Nouveau. The book examines key artists, architects, and intellectuals who sought to break away from academic conventions and cultivate a modern cultural identity rooted in both Czech nationalism and cosmopolitan European trends. Through an analysis of architecture, painting, graphic design, and decorative arts, it highlights Prague’s role as a vibrant creative hub where innovative aesthetics blended with political aspirations, ultimately contributing to the cultural foundation of modern Czechoslovakia.
