For your birthday, a collection of photographs by painter, photographer and designer Alexander Rodchenko (1891-1956), one of the founders of Russian constructivism.

A portrait of poet Vladimir Mayakovsky. I always found this portrait to be extremely fascinating (ever since I was 9). Mayakovsky was a gorgeous, strong and passionate man:
