"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

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
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.

"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

"Chocolate" written by Lev Zilov and illustrated by Vera Ivanovna in 1928. The #soviet children books instead of fairy tales introduced children how things were made. #sovietart
"The Spring March" written by Esfir (Esteher) Emden and illustrated by and illustrated by Vera Ivanova in 1930. The book might be about the first meeting of pioneers which was held a year earlier, in August 1929, and the First International Children's Congress was held then too.

"The Butter Factory" written by Yakov Miller and illustrated by Pavel Basmanov in 1931. Масло (Maslo) in Russian means butter, but it means also oil paint. I looked at the the beautiful painterly images and thought about an oil paint factory with cows. #soviet #sovietart

"The Wonder Tree" written by Korney Chukovsky and illustrated by Vladimir Konashevich in 1926. I really like the more "simple" style of Konashevich from the 1920's and book covers are incredibly stricking. #soviet #sovietart

"Daddy Starling, Mummy starling and Baby Starling" written by Vasily Khmelnitsky and illustrated by Boris Lapshin in 1989. Excuse my frivolous translation of the title from Russian. Lapshin has created strange, dreamy world in this little book of short stories. #soviet #sovietart

You have probably heard about dinosaurs? But they haven't heard about you. Why? Because they were so big, that the trees were for them like bushes,mountains like hills and seas like lakes but they didn't notice puddles. They didn't notice them until they caught flue and died away
