In the 1960s, after a period of destitution and isolation on their Petrkov farmstead, which had become a kolkhoz, Suzanne Renaud and Bohuslav Reynek welcomed many visitors who had come to see the engraver’s art. Faithful friends they had met in Dauphiné between the wars came from France. In 1963 “Annette”, a young woman from Grenoble, spent the month of September in Petrkov. “The impulse that made her drive across so many kilometres did not only please the poet; for his wife it was a drop of living water that fell from the sky. […] [Thirty years later] she founded the ‘Romarin–Les Amis de Suzanne Renaud et Bohuslav Reynek’ association in Grenoble.” (Jiří Šerých, Il y a bien longtemps).
