EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures a moment in history during the height of communism in Russia in 1934. A group of soldiers stand ready to hoist the iconic hammer and sickle flag, symbolizing the strength and unity of the communist regime. The soldiers, dressed in patched trousers and standing stoically outside the Kremlin, represent a sense of duty and loyalty to their political ideology.
The caption humorously notes that waiting for Europe to turn communist may be a long process, but at least these soldiers have a steady job. Despite the uncertainty of when or if communism will spread beyond Russia's borders, these men remain committed to their cause.
The image evokes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era when politics were deeply entrenched in ideology and power struggles. It serves as a reminder of the complexities and contradictions inherent in political systems like communism.
Overall, this print from Mary Evans Picture Library is not just a historical snapshot but also a thought-provoking commentary on the enduring legacy of communism in Russia and beyond.
