Working Days Calculation, 1934
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Alexander Viktorovich Moravov that offers a glimpse into the lives of female workers during the early days of Soviet Union. In this thought-provoking artwork, a group of women can be seen diligently calculating their working days using an abacus system. The painting showcases the artist's mastery in capturing not only the physical labor but also the revolutionary spirit and determination of these women. Dressed in red headscarves, symbolizing their alignment with Bolshevism, they embody the ideals of socialism and communism. Moravov's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke as he portrays each woman engrossed in her task. Their expressions reflect both concentration and resilience, highlighting their role as essential contributors to building a new society. This piece belongs to the genre of socialist realism, which aimed to depict scenes from everyday life under communism. It serves as a powerful reminder of the importance placed on laborers and peasants within Soviet ideology. Now housed at the Regional Art Museum in Tver, this painting continues to resonate with viewers today. Its historical significance lies not only in its portrayal of working-class women but also in its representation of an era defined by radical societal transformation. "Working Days Calculation" stands as a testament to both artistic skill and political conviction, inviting us to reflect on our own understanding of labor and social progress.
