Iwan Albertovich Puni (Russian: Иван Альбертович Пуни; also known as Jean Pougny; April 3, 1890 – December 28, 1956) was a Russian avant-garde artist (Suprematism, Cubo-Futurism) who later became French. He evolved towards Lyric Primitivism, influenced by Pierre Bonnard and Édouard Vuillard. After an exhibition at the Salon des Indépendants in 1910 in Paris, where he discovered Fauvism and Cubism, Puni returned to Russia and joined the avant-garde group Union of Youth, where he became associated with Mayakovsky and Velimir Khlebnikov. At his Futurist exhibition in March 1915, he presented eleven Cubist-inspired works and a relief titled "Card Players," which has since disappeared.

This painting, which continues the theme of the lost piece and "The Ace of Diamonds", also presented by our gallery, offers a Constructivist view of a card game.
The text in Cyrillic translates to "The Ace of Clubs."
