EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases one of a series of 11 wrappers from Krasnoarmeiskaia Zvezda (Red Army Star) caramels, created by the renowned artist Vladimir Mayakovsky in 1924. The vibrant color lithograph depicts a powerful message, marking the victories of the Red Army during the Civil War and calling all citizens to defend their nation. In this particular wrapper, we see a soldier running with determination, holding up an admiral's hat just in time for him to notice. The text boldly states, "Kolchak and the rulers were asleep - they only just saw the admiral in time". This clever phrase serves as propaganda to rally support for the military efforts and portrays a sense of urgency and vigilance. Mayakovsky's illustration skillfully combines elements of Soviet symbolism such as the red star army emblem with cartoon-like imagery. The design is both eye-catching and thought-provoking, capturing attention through its dynamic composition. The wrapper itself represents more than just packaging for caramel confectionary; it embodies a significant historical period marked by civil war and strife. It serves as a reminder of how art can be used as a tool for political messaging and mobilization. This remarkable print is part of a private collection but remains accessible to all who appreciate Russian history, artistic expression, or simply enjoy indulging in sweet treats for both eyes and taste buds alike.
