Kuzma Petrov-Vodkin created his own original theory of painting, developing a system of spherical perspective from divergences from geometrically regular forms. Many of his works combine a planetary outlook with a large-scale form free of minor details. The poetic metaphor is particularly strident in Fantasy. The figurative structure of this work is perceived as a passionate summons to awaken and fly across the wide-open spaces.
