This print showcases a historic artifact that takes us back to the tumultuous times of the Russian Revolution. The image features a copy of "The Schweizer Illustrierte Zeitung" newspaper from 15 December 1917, with none other than Vladimir Lenin gracing its title page. This lithographic masterpiece, found in the esteemed collection of Schweizerisches Nationalmuseum in Affoltern, Switzerland, encapsulates the portrait and power that defined this pivotal period in history. Lenin's presence on this publication symbolizes his influential role as a key figure in the October Revolution and the subsequent rise of Bolshevism. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported to Zurich during those revolutionary years when Russia was undergoing radical transformations. The fine art quality of this print allows us to appreciate not only its historical significance but also the artistic craftsmanship involved in its creation.
