In an article on Chekhonin's late oeuvre, Lidia Andreeva commented on the originality of his designs for theatrical productions in the late 1920s and early 1930s: 'During that time, his theatre costumes were like a patchwork of gussets of Suprematist canvases, randomly cut out. A new, decorative form was constructed from triangular, square and sometimes oval-shaped forms.' (L. Andreeva, 'On the late creative period of S. Chekhonin', Soviet Decorative Art-76, Moscow, 1978, p. 230)
