This photograph captures a print of the "Old man (Head two paces behind)" figurine, created for the opera Victory over the sun by A. Kruchenykh in 1923. The photo showcases this intriguing piece of art found in the collection of Musee d'art et d'histoire in Genf. The figurine itself is an embodiment of the avant-garde movement that swept through Russia during this time period. With its bold lines and geometric shapes, it epitomizes both futurism and constructivism, showcasing a fusion of graphic arts and fine art images. Designed as part of stage set for Victory over the sun, this lithograph reflects Aleksey Kruchenykh's vision for a futuristic theatre experience. It exudes an air of mystery with its abstract form and theatrical scenic painting techniques. The photograph also hints at El Lissitzky's influence on this artwork, as he collaborated closely with Kruchenykh during their exploration into futurist aesthetics. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to a world where ballet meets visual spectacle. It reminds us that theatre has always been a platform for pushing boundaries and challenging conventions. This photo serves as a testament to the power of artistic collaboration across disciplines and eras.
