This print titled "Red Laughter" transports us back to the tumultuous era of World War I. Created in December 1917 during the Russian Revolution and depicting a satirical scene filled with symbolism and political commentary. The illustration showcases an intriguing interaction between two powerful figures amidst chaos.

This dialogue alludes to a complex relationship between these historical figures during this period of revolution.
