EDITORS COMMENTS
The photograph captures a powerful moment in history, showcasing the color lithography print of "USSR Citizens! Keep the monuments!". The image, taken in Moscow in 1919 by the Russian School of the 20th century, depicts a manifesto by Nikolai Kupreyanov (1894 - 1933) for a campaign initiated by the Department of Preservation of Monuments and Antiquities. This poster is part of Fototeca Gilardi's collection and represents an era marked by communism and its influence on art and culture. The vibrant colors used in this propaganda piece reflect both tradition and innovation within Soviet Russia during that time. The message conveyed through this artwork encourages citizens to value their historical heritage. It serves as a reminder to protect monuments and antiquities that hold significance not only for Russia but also for humanity as a whole. By preserving these symbols from the past, they ensure that future generations can learn from them. The print evokes feelings of national pride while emphasizing collective responsibility towards cultural preservation. Its presence amidst other posters from the early twentieth century showcases how art was utilized as agitprop to disseminate political ideologies under communist rule. As we delve into this photograph, we are transported back to an era when Russia underwent significant social transformation. The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) sought to forge its identity through revolutionary ideals while simultaneously honoring its rich historical legacy. Through this photo print, Bridgeman Images allows us to witness firsthand how art became intertwined with politics during one of history's most transformative periods—the birth of modern-day Russia within the context of communism.
