Plakaty 137

This is one of Mayakovsky's ROSTA window public information posters, if I'm not mistaken. An explanation of what these are is provided in the extensively recently rewritten (by me) Constructivism page at Wikipedia. Perhaps my doing this reflects a certain megalomania - faked essays all over the world's universities will be based on something I wrote! (hmm, maybe I ought to keep that impulse private) The weight of history though does bear upon one's shoulders when writing such pages, which is my excuse for spending countless hours that could be spent on all manner of more sensible activities fiddling with the damn things.
