Postwar Czechoslovakia was an era of chaos, militarism, oppression, and artistic suppression. Boy Kissing Hand shows a young, shut-eyed boy kissing a hand extending from outside of the photo’s frame. The “Deputy Sheriff” badge on the boy’s jacket alludes to the police-state culture that dominated Czechoslovakia at the time. Here, Saudek employs satire to comment on the alliance between the police and the Czechoslovakian government. By casting a young boy and an older man in the image, Saudek creates a power dynamic that parallels the relationship between a subordinate and a superior within the state. Saudek employs clear visual imagery in order to inspire Czechoslovakian commoners to be conscious of the government
