(THE BLAZE) – A "bored" museum security guard in Russia damaged a high-priced painting by doodling eyes on its blank faces during his first day on the job, the Guardian reported.
The avant-garde piece of art, known as "Three Figures," was produced by Anna Leporskaya between 1932 and 1934 and had been insured for $1.4 million, the outlet noted. It was on display in an abstract art exhibition at the Boris Yeltsin Presidential Center in Ekaterinburg, Russia.
Leporskaya, born in 1900, was reportedly a pupil of one of Russia's most famed avant-garde artists, Kazimir Malevich.
