Malíř Friedrich/Bedřich Feigl a jeho rodina, aneb Život mezi národy a metropolemi / The painter Friedrich/ Bedřich Feigl and his family, or The life between nations and metropolises

The presented diploma thesis is concerned with the personality of Friedrich/ Bedřich Feigl, a painter from the classical modern era, and attempts to understand the milieu in which he lived during the two periods of his life. Based on extant sources (letters, memoirs, press of the period, the painter?s own texts) and using historical-antropological optics, Bedřich Feigl, a Prague German of Jewish origin, is placed into a web of social relationships which formed in the first half of the twentieth century. The thesis is divided into two basic parts. The first one focuses on the Prague period, when Feigl, together with his contemporaries, started to build his own artist?s story. The second part deals with Feigl?s life in Berlin, with the possibilities to succeed as a part-foreigner in a foreign country, and also touches Feigl?s perception of his own identity.
