The Red Guard Entering the Kremlin, Moscow, on 2 November 1917 - A Glimpse into Revolutionary Russia
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a pivotal moment in history - the entry of the Red Guard into the iconic Kremlin in Moscow on 2 November 1917. The image, rendered in vibrant colors through lithography by Wassily Meshkov, transports us back to the turbulent years of early 20th century Russia. As we gaze upon this scene, we witness a powerful display of political upheaval and revolutionary fervor. The soldiers depicted are members of the Red Guard, an armed force composed primarily of workers and peasants who played a crucial role in establishing Bolshevik control during the Russian Revolution. Their red flags proudly wave against a backdrop dominated by one of Russia's most recognizable landmarks. The image serves as both art and propaganda, reflecting not only artistic expression but also political ideology. It symbolizes the triumph of communism and highlights the strength and determination of those fighting for change. This visual representation is reminiscent of other works from that era which aimed to inspire loyalty to communist ideals among ordinary citizens. Meshkov's lithograph provides us with a glimpse into an important chapter in Russian history - when power shifted dramatically towards radical ideologies that would shape much of the country's future trajectory. It stands as a testament to how art can capture significant moments and evoke emotions long after they have passed.
