Briefly about the painting:
Fans, like bicycles, are one of the favorite topics of Cubo-Futurists. This mechanism itself allows us to imply a movement. In the painting by Kliun, this theme is shown as an interior still life with the main “hero” placed in the foreground in the lower left corner. With such a compositional construction, the author sets the diagonal movement to all other elements and even to the air surrounding them. The work is created in the traditional for this style blue-brown gamma, which makes it easy to understand each individual object or its fragment.
