Maggiori informazioni sul libro
In 1989, following the fall of the Berlin Wall, a revolutionary wave reached Prague, and Václav Havel was elected to lead a state that had terrorized its citizens for forty years. As a 26-year-old photographer, I became his personal photographer, despite not knowing him and he not knowing me. Lacking equipment, experience, and funds did not prevent me from experiencing a unique adventure. As the youngest state photographer in the world, I had the opportunity to capture unprecedented moments and meet prominent figures I had only known from the media. I photographed crowds in the squares as well as intimate moments of a president who was not a typical leader. The photographs serve as imprints of time, reminding us of the past. Years later, I reviewed my archive and selected both well-known and new images, including iconic shots of Havel by the Atlantic Ocean and walking along a beach in Portugal. This book is a testament to an extraordinary time, to Václav Havel, and to my life with him.
