This print titled "Cotton breeding" is an illustration from the iconic book "USSR Builds Socialism" published in 1933. Created by El Lissitzky, a renowned artist of his time (1890-1941), this artwork can be found in the esteemed Collection of Russian State Library in Moscow. The image depicts a powerful scene that embodies the spirit of Soviet industrialization and progress. It showcases workers diligently engaged in cotton breeding, symbolizing their dedication to building a prosperous socialist society. The composition exudes energy and dynamism through its use of photomontage and lithography techniques, which were characteristic of Lissitzky's avant-garde style. As a political poster within the context of early 20th-century Russia, this artwork served as propaganda for the proletariat movement led by Lenin.
