EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant color lithograph poster by Nikolai Kogout, created in 1920 Russia, captures the spirit of the Soviet labor movement. The powerful image depicts a man and a woman, representing the working class proletariat, standing proudly with their sleeves rolled up. In their hands, they hold sledgehammers and an anvil symbolizing industry and hard work. The bold slogan "We destroyed our enemy with weapons, we will earn our bread with labor - Comrades, roll up your sleeves for work!" reinforces the message that victory in war must be followed by dedication to rebuilding through honest toil. This propaganda piece aimed to inspire unity among workers and emphasize the importance of manual labor in building a new society. Kogout's artwork showcases his mastery of composition and use of vivid colors to create a visually striking poster that would have caught people's attention during this tumultuous time in Russian history. The inclusion of Cyrillic text further emphasizes its intended audience within the Soviet Union. Overall, this lithograph is not only a historical artifact but also serves as a reminder of the ideals and aspirations held by those who fought for change during this period. It represents both the strength of the working class and their commitment to shaping their own destiny through hard work and determination.
