btw, I like the thoughtful eyes of the messenger's horse. The reference site says Mr Frich-Haar was working in the naive style, because, like he said, "I can't afford being a serious artist".

From the horse's mouth
I came across a funny sculpture in the Tretyakov gallery. Forgot the author's name. Yeah, this is a work by a Soviet sculptor Isidor Frich-Haar. It's supposed to be a scene from the Civil war in Russia (1918-1922). Red Army guys do some military planning (they are using 1:1 maps, obviously)
