EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Do you help to liquidate illiteracy?, 1925" showcases the powerful impact of propaganda art in early 20th-century Russia. Created by an anonymous artist, this fine piece is now housed in the collection of the Russian State Library in Moscow. The image depicts a worker and a peasant standing side by side, symbolizing unity and solidarity among the proletariat. The poster's vibrant colors and striking composition draw attention to its central message: eradicating illiteracy. In line with socialist realism, this artwork aims to agitate and mobilize people towards achieving this noble goal. The use of bold typography emphasizes key words such as "illiteracy" "liquidate" and "help" urging viewers to take action. This political poster represents a larger movement known as likbez (eradication of illiteracy), which was instrumental in raising awareness about analphabetism across Soviet society. Through its visual language, this colour lithograph serves as both a call for action and a celebration of progress. It reminds us that education is not only fundamental but also crucial for societal advancement. By highlighting the importance of literacy, this artwork speaks volumes about the values held dear by those who fought for social change during that era. Overall, this anonymous masterpiece stands as an enduring testament to the power of art as a tool for political agitation and social transformation within early 20th-century Russia.
