EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historical print from May 1st, 1918, we witness a momentous demonstration that unfolded on Palace Square in Petrograd, Saint Petersburg. The crowd has gathered in front of the iconic Winter Palace, their faces filled with determination and hope. A central banner proudly proclaims "Long live International Labour Day, long live Socialism" encapsulating the spirit of the event. This powerful image captures a pivotal chapter in history - the Russian Revolution. It serves as a reminder of the fervent desire for change and equality that swept through Russia during this time. The demonstrators stand united under one cause, demanding justice for workers and advocating for socialism. The significance of this day is further emphasized by its association with International Labour Day. As people around the world commemorate this occasion each year, it is important to reflect on its origins and remember those who fought tirelessly to improve working conditions and champion workers' rights. Preserved by Arkheia as part of their collection documenting 20th-century history, this print offers us a glimpse into an era defined by social upheaval and political transformation. It stands as a testament to the resilience and determination of those who believed in creating a more just society
