EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "He who does not work, neither shall he eat" by Mikhail Mikhailovich Adamovich is a powerful representation of the socio-political climate in Russia during the early 1920s. The image, found in the collection of the State Open-air Museum Peterhof in St. Petersburg, showcases Adamovich's mastery of overglaze decoration on porcelain. The artwork features an intriguing blend of fine art and political agitation art from the Russian avant-garde movement. It depicts a scene that encapsulates Lenin's famous slogan: "He who does not work, neither shall he eat". This phrase became emblematic of Soviet socialism and its emphasis on labor as a fundamental aspect of society. Through his artistic interpretation, Adamovich conveys the message that productivity and contribution to society are essential for sustenance. The composition exudes a sense of urgency and determination, urging viewers to embrace their responsibilities and actively participate in building a new socialist order. As one delves into this remarkable piece, it becomes evident that it represents more than just an aesthetic creation; it serves as a visual manifesto for Soviet ideals. By combining elements from applied arts with political symbolism, Adamovich creates an impactful image that resonates with viewers even today. This photograph print stands as both a testament to Adamovich's talent as an artist and his commitment to promoting revolutionary ideas through his craft. It is undoubtedly an invaluable addition to any collection dedicated to exploring Russian history or appreciating avant-garde masterpieces.
