Édition originale de cette pièce présentée au Luna Park de Saint-Pétersbourg les 2 et 4 décembre 1913 et dans laquelle Maïakovski tenait son propre rôle.



First edition, of this illustrated experimental play, bound by Jean de Gonet. A close collaboration between poets and painters, as typical of the Russian avant-garde, the play was published in the Futurists’ journal. With its satirical stance on urban life and a poet-protagonist, it was part of a futurist experiment, and was intended to alternate on the stage with Kruchonykh’s Victory over the Sun. After its first performance in 1913, the play was, in Mayakovsky’s words, ‘torn into pieces’ by critics.

This copy was exhibited at the Bibliothèque nationale de France in 1978.
