The sculpture is dedicated to the circus aesthetics of the early 20th century, which inspired many outstanding writers and artists with its originality and vivid imagery. So, the image of a strongman – a favorite of enthusiastic public – is one of the most recognizable. A man of remarkable strength lifts a kettlebell that is many times his weight. The audience applauds. What fascinates them about this performance? Perhaps, it is the worship of heroic might, traditionally associated with the victory of good over evil and repeatedly imprinted in folklore.
