This vibrant and captivating print titled "Vitebsk Streetcar. Unovis miscellany No. 1,1919-1920" takes us back to the early years of the Russian revolution, where art and design were flourishing in unprecedented ways. Created by renowned artist El Lissitzky, this fine art lithograph showcases his mastery of graphic arts and poster design. The image depicts a streetcar in Vitebsk, a city that played a significant role in the development of avant-garde movements such as Suprematism. The bold colors and geometric shapes used by Lissitzky are characteristic of this artistic style pioneered by Kazimir Malevich. Lissitzky was an active member of Unovis (Affirmers of New Art), an influential group founded by Malevich that aimed to push the boundaries of traditional art forms. This print is part of their first miscellany publication, which sought to promote new ideas through visual experimentation. With its dynamic composition and striking use of color, this lithograph reflects Lissitzky's innovative approach to art-making during this transformative period in Russian history. It serves as a testament to the power of creativity in challenging societal norms and shaping cultural discourse. Currently held in a private collection, this rare piece offers viewers a glimpse into the rich artistic heritage that emerged from Vitebsk during these tumultuous times. Its historical significance cannot be overstated as it represents not only an iconic moment but also
