The work of the Italian mosaicist Sauro Ballardini in Prague
The purpose of this article is to recall the work of the Italian mosaicist Sauro Ballardini, who lived in Prague from the late 1950's to the early 1980's, where he worked at the Academy of Fine Arts (AVU) and devoted himself to monumental mosaics. His work is an integral part of the history of this art technique in Bohemia and is a special connection between the period requirements for the creations of local public artistic works and the knowledge that the artist brought with him from Italy.
