What I Can Learn from Vladimir Shukhov

First of all, Vladimir Shukhov is known as an engineer. But even here, things are not so simple: he is a mechanic, a petroleum engineer, and a builder — a total of three professions! In addition, he was involved in... sports, had a passion for photography and cycling. Moreover, Vladimir Grigorievich seems to have discovered the recipe for longevity, as he lived to be 85 years old and remained active until the end of his life, losing neither his vigor nor his sharpness of mind.
This brief illustrated biography will tell about the life of this brilliant engineer. How did studying anatomy influence Shukhov's work? What is the "symphonic" nature of thinking and how does it manifest? Why did oil workers erect a monument to Shukhov? And also about how important it is to broaden one’s horizons and maintain order at one’s workplace.
