Abstrakt

The aim of the article is to present the figure of Josef Čapek in the context of his childhood spent at the foot of the Giant Mountains on the basis of his memoirs included in the collections of essays O sobě and Krakonošova zahrada. The author of the analysis seeks to demonstrate how the artist constructed his autobiographical place, which he called “Krakonošova zahrada” (Karkonosz’s garden) and whether it has any references to his later oeuvre, in particular his typographic work, namely book cover design.
