The picture is an illustration from a book by the Russian Soviet writer, A. N. Tolstoy, entitled The Golden Key, or the Adventures of Buratino. It was an adaptation of the well-known novel by Carlo Collodi, The Adventures of Pinocchio. Tolstoy claimed that he had read the book as a child but lost it and started reimagining it many years later. Facts and dates do not really support his explanation and, rather, hint at plagiarism but, ever since the book was published in 1936, millions of Soviet children have enjoyed it.
