In the life of Boris Kustodiev
The whole life1922
Illustrates Zamyatin's “How the Monk Erasmus Was Healed”
Kustodiev designed a separate illustrated edition of Yevgeny Zamyatin's story “How the Monk Erasmus Was Healed”. Zamyatin recalled that a seemingly insoluble task was solved with remarkable elegance, tact and a great sense of humour.
1922–1923
Illustrates Leskov
With his fine feeling for line, Kustodiev illustrated Leskov's “The Darner” (1922) and “Lady Macbeth of the Mtsensk District” (1923); he also worked in lithography and linocut.
1923
Joins the Association of Artists of Revolutionary Russia
Kustodiev joined the Association of Artists of Revolutionary Russia, and continued to paint, make engravings, illustrate books and design for the theatre until his death.
1925
Designs Zamyatin's “The Flea”
The productions of “The Flea” at the Second Moscow Art Theatre (1925) and the Leningrad Bolshoi Drama Theatre (1926) were a success. The director A. D. Diky recalled that he had nothing to correct in the designs: “The artist led the whole production.”
