Stand Up for Petrograd!
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a powerful and evocative propaganda poster created by artist Alexander Apsit in 1919. This black and white lithograph captures the essence of the Russian Civil War that followed the revolution, urging workers and soldiers to defend their beloved city of Petrograd (now St Petersburg) against counter-revolutionary forces. The poster exudes a sense of urgency and determination, with its bold graphic design featuring a male figure holding a gun and bayonet. The text, written in Cyrillic script, reinforces the message of resistance and defense. It symbolizes the communist ideals that were at stake during this tumultuous period in Russian history. Apsit's artistic style reflects social realism, depicting ordinary people as heroes fighting for their country. The monochrome palette adds to the intensity of the image, emphasizing the seriousness of the situation. This print is not just an artwork; it represents a pivotal moment in history when Russia was torn apart by political ideologies. It serves as a reminder of how art can be used as a tool for political persuasion and mobilization. Today, this iconic poster can be found in the collection of the Russian State Library in Moscow. Its historical significance continues to resonate, reminding us of both past struggles and enduring human resilience.
