"White Army: A Struggle for Power and Ideology" In the tumultuous years following the Russian Revolution, a fierce battle raged between the Red Army and their adversaries known as the White Army. This captivating poster, "Beat the Whites with the red wedge, " created by El Lissitzky in 1920, symbolizes the determination of the Bolsheviks to overcome their opponents. The dogs of the Entente – Denikin, Kolchak, and Yudenich – are depicted in another striking artwork by Denisov. These leaders represented counter-revolutionary forces seeking to restore old regimes. The poster titled "Entente under the mask of peace" by Viktor Nikolaevich Denisov exposes their true intentions. Amidst this chaos, slogans like "Death to capital - or death under the heel of capital. " echoed through revolutionary circles. Ivan Andreevich Malyutin's illustration from 1919 criticizes those who preferred ink over action when it came to rebuilding society. Poland emerged as a significant player during this period. Anonymous' artwork portrays Poland as "the last dog of Entente, " highlighting its alliance with anti-Bolshevik forces. Malyutin's creation urges individuals to take up arms on "the Polish front. " As reconstruction efforts began after years of conflict, artists like Vladimir Mayakovsky called for voluntary assistance in rebuilding working life. Their posters encouraged people to lend a helping hand during these challenging times. Mayakovsky also emphasized that if one no longer wished to fight against fellow Russians, they should redirect their efforts towards battling Poland instead. Such sentiments were captured powerfully in his work titled "If you don't want to fight anymore, go fight against Poland. " Meanwhile, an anonymous creator commemorated Dreadnought Imperator Aleksandr III stationed at Bizerte in 1920—a reminder of Russia's naval strength amidst political turmoil.
