This work depicts a clock with Roman numerals. The usual minute and hour hands are replaced by a bent and warped hammer and sickle. The viewer cannot read the time with accuracy, because of the curved nature of these objects. Across the bottom of the composition is the Russian text “Time works for communism.”
