EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures the essence of Soviet political agitation art in 1928, with "The Young Communist Dunya" at its center. Created by Mikhail Georgiyevich Sokolov, this chromolithograph is a powerful symbol of the cultural revolution taking place in Russia at that time.
The image depicts Dunya, a young peasant woman, standing proudly as a symbol of the proletariat and the eradication of illiteracy. The poster serves as propaganda for the likbez campaign - an initiative aimed at educating and empowering the working class through literacy.
Sokolov's fine art portrayal of Dunya exudes strength and determination, reflecting the spirit of socialist realism prevalent during this era. The use of bold colors and dynamic composition adds to the overall impact of the piece, drawing viewers into its message.
Located in the Russian State Library in Moscow, this historical artwork continues to serve as a reminder of a pivotal moment in Russian history. It stands as a testament to the power of visual imagery in shaping political ideologies and inspiring social change.
"The Young Communist Dunya" remains an important part of Russia's artistic heritage, showcasing both the talent of Sokolov as an artist and his dedication to promoting revolutionary ideals through his work.
