To the Elections! For Collectivisation! For the harvest!
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a vibrant and powerful piece of political propaganda from Soviet Russia. Created by artist Vasily Nikolaevich Kostyanitsyn, this colour lithograph captures the essence of communist ideology during a critical period in Russian history. The image depicts a group of enthusiastic peasants, dressed in traditional attire, eagerly marching towards an election rally. Their determined faces reflect their commitment to collectivisation and agricultural progress. The poster's bold red background symbolizes revolution and unity, while its dynamic composition draws attention to the central figures representing the working class. This artwork serves as a testament to the power of propaganda in shaping public opinion. It was created during a time when Joseph Stalin's regime sought to transform agriculture through collectivisation – merging individual farms into large collective units known as kolkhozes. By promoting elections and encouraging support for these policies, Kostyanitsyn's work aimed to mobilize citizens towards achieving societal goals set by the Communist Party. As part of socialist realism movement prevalent at that time, "To the Elections! For Collectivisation! For the harvest!" embodies both artistic excellence and ideological messaging. Its historical significance lies not only in its portrayal of rural life but also in its representation of Soviet political agitation art. Now housed within Moscow's Russian State Library collection, this print stands as a reminder of how art can be harnessed for political purposes – inspiring action among masses while reflecting prevailing ideologies and aspirations within society.
