The portrait of Branko Ve Poljanski, one of the ideologues and representatives of the avant-garde Serbian art movement Zenitism, was created at a time when Bijelić was inspired by the ideas of constructivism and the Russian avant-garde. It represents one of his most significant drawings from the avant-garde period - a collaboration with Ljubomir Micić and the Zenit magazine. It is created in the spirit of geometric stylisation, with elements of expressed graphism and expressiveness in appearance. It is one of the few examples of experimental processing and stylisation of a human figure in Serbian art in the 1920s. The work belongs to the legacy of Ljubomir Micić.
