Le Quai (The Wharf)

c. 1919

Mikhail Larionov (Russian (active Moscow and Paris), 1881–1964) Poet Valentin Parnakh (Russian, 1891–1951)

Valentin Parnakh was a prominent member of the cosmopolitan Russian-Jewish cultural community. His volumes of Futurist- and Symbolist-inspired poetry, illustrated by Larionov and Natalia Goncharova and published by small Parisian presses, are examples of the lively cross-fertilizations among the arts at that time.
