Mucha's "The Slav Epic," a monumental series of 20 paintings, was donated to the city of Prague in 1928, the 10th anniversary of Czechoslovakia's independence. Of these, 19 paintings, completed by Independence Day, were unveiled to the public on the anniversary. This is a poster announcing that event. The poster is divided into two parts: the upper part featuring a section of the painting (this work) and the lower part providing an overview of the exhibition. The lower part was replaced for subsequent traveling exhibitions. B0318
