EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking cover design for Daniil Kharms' book "Firstly and secondly" by artist Vladimir Evgraphovich Tatlin is a true masterpiece of book art. The bold colors and dynamic composition draw the viewer in, hinting at the avant-garde nature of Kharms' writing. Tatlin, known for his innovative work in the realm of Russian Constructivism, brings a sense of energy and movement to this cover through his use of color lithography. The geometric shapes and abstract forms create a sense of modernity that was characteristic of the artistic movements happening in Russia during this time period. The combination of Kharms' experimental prose with Tatlin's cutting-edge design makes this book cover a true reflection of the artistic spirit of 1920s Moscow. It serves as a visual representation of the creative collaboration between writers and artists during this tumultuous yet vibrant period in Russian history. As we gaze upon this piece from the collection of the Russian State Library, we are reminded not only of the power of literature to inspire visual art, but also how both can come together to create something truly unique and timeless.
