The everyday life of the capital enters Milada Marešová's work in the 1920s. The 1930s marked a great artistic flowering, illustrating a large number of books, newspapers and magazines. Her works are increasingly in demand and are also included in low-cost bibliophile editions. In the totality of the big city, Milada Marešová does not forget to carefully portray the characters of individuals who come together to form one urban colouring. The composition thus has an extremely organic effect and awakens the imagination. The author often seeks out special types and observes their moods, thoughts and peculiarities, which she carefully records with a certain degree of grotesqueness.
