Skotniy Dvor. [The Farmyard].

Propaganda for Soviet children on the advances of industrial agriculture and collectivisation. In excellent condition.

Teodor Pevzner (1904-1942) studied at Vkhutemas before turning to children's book design. For The Farmyward he uses staggered perspective and bright contrasting colours to create vivid scenes of cows being milked, horses in their stables and children playing with animals in a fashion befitting his avant-garde training.
