Two panels unite ideological symbolism with classical abundance, as a stern portrait of Karl Marx confronts an overflowing cornucopia rendered in the style of Soviet Socialist Realism blended with Old Master techniques. Komar and Melamid employ oil and tempera on hardboard to create a provocative juxtaposition between the father of communist theory and the horn of plenty, a symbol traditionally associated with capitalist bounty and material wealth. The diptych format underscores the artists' signature satirical commentary on the contradictions embedded within Soviet ideology and its complex relationship with prosperity and desire.
