This work showcases Lissitzky's innovative approach to visual storytelling, using simplified geometric forms in black and red.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cp\u003eThis illustration by El Lissitzky (1890-1941), a Russian artist, designer, photographer, typographer, polemicist, and architect, exemplifies the Constructivist movement's influence on book design. Lissitzky was a major figure in the Russian avant-garde, helping develop Constructivism and spreading its ideas internationally. He believed that art could be a force for social change, and he applied Constructivist principles to various media, including graphic design and typography. \n\nThis particular illustration, created for the Yiddish children's book 'The Hen Who Wanted a Comb', showcases Lissitzky's innovative approach to visual storytelling. The composition features simplified, geometric forms in black and red, depicting a hen, a rooster, and a stylised landscape. The text, integrated into the design, adds another layer of meaning. Lissitzky's use of bold colours and dynamic shapes creates a visually engaging and modern aesthetic, reflecting the Constructivist emphasis on functionality and clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/female-model-vilhelm-lundstrom-2\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eFemale Model - Vilhelm Lundstrøm — Vilhelm Lundstrøm\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/mother-mikulas-galanda\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eMother - Mikuláš Galanda — Mikuláš Galanda\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/el-lissitzky\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#2a555a;border:1px solid #2a555a;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#ffffff;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eMore by El Lissitzky →\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"El Lissitzky","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57308495642959,"sku":null,"price":25.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57308512026959,"sku":null,"price":31.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57308512059727,"sku":null,"price":40.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57308512092495,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57308512125263,"sku":null,"price":49.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57308512158031,"sku":null,"price":40.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":57308512190799,"sku":null,"price":40.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57308512223567,"sku":null,"price":40.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57308512256335,"sku":null,"price":54.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":57308512289103,"sku":null,"price":54.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57308512321871,"sku":null,"price":54.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57308512354639,"sku":null,"price":81.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":57308512387407,"sku":null,"price":81.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57308512420175,"sku":null,"price":81.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57308512452943,"sku":null,"price":105.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":57308512485711,"sku":null,"price":105.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57308512518479,"sku":null,"price":105.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57308512551247,"sku":null,"price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":57308512584015,"sku":null,"price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57308512616783,"sku":null,"price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/file_65d22042-2464-4710-8485-bb9cf85cacc9.jpg?v=1774375990","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/products\/illustration-to-the-hen-who-wanted-a-comb-el-lissitzky","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
