EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage Bolshevik poster print captures the essence of political propaganda during a pivotal moment in history. Created in 1918, it depicts a powerful message that resonated with the Bolshevik movement at the time. The top text boldly declares, "It is time to be in cleanliness and not filth" urging individuals to embrace cleanliness both literally and metaphorically. The image portrays a determined Bolshevik figure sweeping away Capitalist leaders from Europe and America, symbolizing their intent to cleanse society from what they perceived as corrupt capitalist influences. This visual representation reflects the revolutionary spirit of the era when Russia was undergoing significant political changes. The poster incorporates various European monarchs and political figures such as Czar Nicholas II, King George V, Emperor Wilhelm II, President Woodrow Wilson, Kaiser Karl I, and others who were seen as representatives of oppressive systems. By depicting them being swept away like dirty linen being cleaned up, this artwork conveys a strong anti-capitalist sentiment. With its vibrant colors and cartoon-like style typical of early 20th-century propaganda art, this Bolshevism-themed postcard serves as an intriguing historical artifact. It offers viewers a glimpse into the ideological battles that shaped nations during this tumultuous period. As part of The Granger Collection's Carousel Collection series featuring vintage prints from around the world, this piece showcases how art can be used for political expression while also serving as a reminder of past struggles for social change.
