Abstract
This essay describes the vin'etki[vignettes] placed at the beginnings and ends of texts throughout the two journal issues of Dom iskusstv[House of Arts]. The images, often created specifically to reflect the written word, mark the journal as a post-revolutionary continuation of Mir iskusstva[World of Art]'s legacy and aesthetics, and represent significant stylistic and thematic elements of some of the era's best known graphic artists. Also addressed is the documentary significance of the only photograph reproduced in the journal: it depicts an exhibition of Boris Kustodiev's work hosted at the House of Arts in 1921.
