Konstantin Rotov / 16 humorous cartoon postcards by Rotov printed in Kaliningrad

Description: 16 humorous cartoon postcards by Rotov printed in Kaliningrad, 1957 Author: Rotov, Konstantin Title: 16 humorous cartoon postcards by Rotov printed in Kaliningrad, 1957 Publication: Kaliningrad: 1957 Description: 16 postcards with color illustrations by Konstantin Rotov, published in Kaliningrad (a Russian oblast between Lithuania and Poland). Truly uncommon, especially in such nice condition. Konstantin Rotov (1902-1959) was an very popular Russian artist and cartoonist sentenced by Stalin to 14 years of hard labor because his satirical work in journals was deemed counterrevolutionary. Rotov was extremely popular in the interwar years. In the eyes of the general public he was probably the Soviet Union's most illustrious artist (and was certainly more well-known than such avant-garde artists as Kazimir Malevich, Aleksandr Rodchenko and Marc Chagall). His cartoons appeared on an almost daily basis. Offering a mild and bright humor, they were remembered by people for many years: when Rotov was imprisoned, his fellow inmates would ask him if he had drawn the illustrations for the Golden Calf, a famous satirical novel by his friends I. Il'f and E. Petrov. He was especially good at multi-figured scenes which could be pored over for hours, and his style was probably influenced by the cartoons of Walt Disney. After Stalin's death, Rotov was allowed to return to Moscow, but died in 1959 mainly due to the injuries sustained by his time in the gulags. (This information came mostly from an article from 2018 by Andrey Lazarev writing for The Tate in London, based on the works of Rotov found in the David King collection housed there). Very good.
