This drawing depicts two famous characters from the fairy tale “The Golden Key, or the Incredible Adventures of Buratino”. Karabas-Barabas is a thick, vicious and formidable puppet theater, with a pronounced beard and characteristic clothing. Duremar is his assistant and a clever fraudster who looks thinner and more cunning. He stands behind Karabas and watches with interest what is happening. This moment highlights the comic dynamic of the interaction between the characters, where Duremar seems to be up to something and Karabas is in his anger and indiscretion. The illustration vividly conveys the atmosphere of adventure and mystery inherent in this classic story.
