Jaroslav Dobrovolsky (1895 - 1942) was a Czech artist, graphic designer, and educator. He was brilliant in various techniques and mediums, but would be specifically remembered for his woodcuts, linocuts, and etchings, which he usually created as series on particular topics. He exhibited his works all over the world and was appointed the Chairman of the Czech delegation to the International Bookplate Exhibition in Los Angeles in 1936. After Germany occupied his country, Dobrovolsky joined the Obrana Naroda (Defending the Nation) - the largest, anti-Nazi, resistance organization in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. He was arrested in September of 1940 and thrown in the Mauthausen Concentration Camp. He died at the camp in 1942. His current work contains 30 + 2 stunning examples of his bookplates, with original woodcuts.
