EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful photo print, titled "Defence of Petrograd by all our Forces, 1919" captures the essence of the tumultuous period following the Russian Revolution. Created by artist Alexander Apsit, this propaganda poster serves as a rallying cry for workers and soldiers to protect their beloved city of Petrograd (St Petersburg) from counter-revolutionary forces during the civil war. In this image, we see a determined soldier holding his gun with aggression in his eyes. The concept of resistance and defence is palpable as he stands ready to fight against those who threaten the revolution's ideals. The monochrome effect adds depth and intensity to the scene while emphasizing its historical significance. The presence of Cyrillic text further reinforces its connection to Russia's political landscape at that time. This print showcases social realism through its depiction of ordinary men transformed into defenders of their country. It symbolizes both the strength and vulnerability present during this era. Alexander Apsit masterfully captures not only the physicality but also the spirit behind these fighters' cause. Through this artwork, he immortalizes an important chapter in history when people fought for their beliefs amidst chaos and uncertainty. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of how art can be used as a tool for propaganda during times of conflict. It serves as a testament to human resilience and determination in defending what they hold dear – their freedom, their city, and ultimately their future.
