Why Kafka's drawings were locked away for decades – and how they were rediscovered

It is doubtful that many of the tourists crowding around the sculpture of Franz Kafka’s head in the city where he was born have actually read his stories. More likely, they visit this peculiar sculpture simply because it appears on every list of must-see attractions in Prague. Even if some have read his works, it is almost certain they do not know that Kafka was also a visual artist. That ignorance is not their fault.
