About Lucie Awards
The Lucie Award will make it debut at the Gala Awards

photographers, Frantisek Drtikol and E. O. Hoppe. "Lucie"
is the sculptural form inspired by the synthesis of
two famous photographic images from the first half of
the twentieth century. Taken from the Latin word, "lux"
for "light", Lucie is a tribute to the influence
and role light plays in photography.
