"Summer" is a beautiful book by Russian avant-garde artist Alexei Pakhomov published in 1927. It is already August and the summer is almost over. This book makes me nostalgic about all the things I enjoyed when I was a child during the holidays. #summer #soviet ImageImage

"Golden Leaves" written by Rachel Engel and illustrated by Sophia Vishenvetskaya and Elena Fradkina in 1927. Both artists were stage designers and worked a lot together. It feels already like autumn here, in anticipation of brilliant colours I am posting this book... #soviet

Is it #Caturday already?!!!
'Pischik's Songs' written by Nikolai Aseev and illustrated by Bronislav Malachovsky and Pyotr Snopkov in 1925. The beautiful ginger cat is too lazy to chase mice, he likes to look at the amazing shadow of his wonderful whiskers and read books.
Malakhovsky took up this project as a student, he was the first to illustrate the "Golden Key" by Alexey Tolstoy and he drew cartoons for the"Crocodile". Bronislav Malakhovsky lived only 34 years: he was accused of espionage (because he was Polish) and was executed. #Caturday
Pyotr Snopkov was a scenographer & illustrator. There is little information about him - he was arrested and died in the camp. He is often remembered for: he beat Daniil Kharms in the competition for the heart of the artist Alice Poret and even briefly became her husband.#caturday

"How the Sky Fell" written by Nikolai Zilov and illustrated by Boris Pokrovsky in 1923. The beautiful etched images looks so good in two-colour scheme.

"Sinbad the Sailor" illustrated by Mikhail Mayofis in 1991. Absolutely terrific artwork by this incredible #soviet artist who resides nowadays in Los Angeles. I wonder if the thin gold lines are done with gel pens?

Fantastic illustrations by G.A.V. Traugot for Anton Chekhov's short story "Kashtanka" from 1985. I love the brilliant use primary colours in unexpected places. #Soviet #sovietart ImageImage
The abbreviature GAV emphasizes the unity of creative spirit of three artists. George Traugot (1903-1961), Alexander Traugot (b.1931) and Valery Traugot (1936- 2009, Saint-Petersburg). Alexander Traugot still signs his work “GAV Traugot” in memory of his brother and father. ImageImage

"A Ring and A Riddle" written by M. Ilin and E. Segal and illustrated by Vera Bock in 1944. She emigrated with her family from Russia during the revolution and settled in USA. She had studied in England studying woodcutting, manuscript illumination, printing and photogravure.
