The image shows the Red Guards, specifically the Putilov Red Guard, seizing control of a tank from the Junkers (Young Cadets) and striking dramatic poses for the camera. These young revolutionaries boldly name the tank after Lieutenant Schmidt, a hero of the 1905 rising against Tsarist rule.
The scene is filled with tension and excitement as these fearless guards take charge in overthrowing the old order and ushering in a new era of Soviet power. The historical significance of this event cannot be understated, as it symbolizes the strength and determination of those fighting for change in Russia.
