A book cover for the Czech translation of Guillaume Apollinaire’s book Prsy Tiresiovy (The Breasts of Tiresias), designed by Karel Teige and published in Prague. Includes illustrations by the Czech artist Josef Šima. The borders between different art and design movements was very fluid in the 1920s and 1930s as can be seen in the work of Teige.
