The Presentation is by Misha Beletsky on Visual Storytelling in Early 20th c. Russian Illustrated Books. They say: "Early Soviet books were created in a period of complete devastation of the printing trade, and an astonishing outburst of creativity that made up for all technical deficiencies. These talks will examine new ways words and images came together to tell a story in illustrated books for children and adults of the period".
