EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic artwork titled "Fenetre ROSTA, 1920" created by Vladimir Mayakovsky, a renowned Soviet poet, playwright, and draughtsman. The image was produced by the Russian State Telegraph Agency (ROSTA) during the early years of communism in Russia. Mayakovsky's caricature is a powerful political statement against the Menchevics, a faction within the Russian Communist Party that opposed Lenin's Bolsheviks. Through his artistry, Mayakovsky aimed to criticize and ridicule their ideology. The composition features bold lines and exaggerated figures that vividly express Mayakovsky's disdain for the Menchevics. His unique style combines elements of satire and propaganda to convey his message effectively. As one of the most influential poets of his time, Mayakovsky used visual art as an additional medium to spread communist ideals throughout society. This particular piece reflects both his artistic talent and unwavering dedication to promoting revolutionary principles. Today, this historic photograph serves as a valuable reminder of Russia's tumultuous past and offers viewers an opportunity to delve into its rich cultural heritage. It stands as a testament to Mayakovsky's significant contributions not only as a poet but also as an artist who played an integral role in shaping Soviet history.
