EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the set design for "The Flea" a play written by Yevgeny Zamyatin in 1925. Created by Boris Mikhailovich Kustodiev, this tempera on wood masterpiece is housed at the State Central Literary Museum in Moscow, Russia. "The Flea" is not only a work of science fiction but also political satire, reflecting Zamyatin's unique style and perspective. The photograph captures the essence of this satirical play with its intricate designs, caricatures, and decorative elements. Each detail tells a story - from the exaggerated characters to the cleverly annotated notes. Kustodiev's artistic brilliance shines through as he brings Zamyatin's vision to life on stage. The ornate and theatrical decoration adds depth and richness to the overall composition, enhancing both the humor and satire portrayed within. As we delve into this image, we are transported back to early 20th-century Russia where political tensions were high. Through his artistry, Kustodiev manages to capture not only the spirit of "The Flea" but also reflects upon society's struggles during that time. This print serves as a testament to both Zamyatin's literary genius and Kustodiev's artistic prowess. It invites us into a world filled with imagination, laughter, and thought-provoking social commentary – reminding us of the power that theater holds in shaping our understanding of society.
