拍品专文

Judging by certain lines of the poetry it would appear that Zelenaia koshka was conceived and published in Estonia. Futurist inspired publications of this type from the baltic states are little known and rarely appear in contemporary bibliographies. Consequently, the publication date, edition details and any biographical information regarding the artist and author have proven impossible to find. Doubtless with time the history of this fine lyrical compendium will come to light.
