Summary/Abstract: The collection of photographs of the National Museum of Education and Jan Amos Comenius Library contains a file related to the Student Home institution in the 1920s. One of those photographs by coincidence shows the poet Jiří Wolker at the table in the students’ canteen. The aim of those contributions is to publish this photograph, date it with more precision, to prove, with the aid of further sources, that the poet used to eat at this canteen during this part of his life, and to identify the other persons sitting at his table.
