Bourgeois Brave Capitalist Communism Communist Fear Fixes Worker Cowers
FEATURES IN THESE COLLECTIONS
EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and thought-provoking print from Mary Evans Picture Library captures a pivotal moment in history during the height of the communist movement in 1917. The image depicts a big, brave communist worker fearlessly fixing an anti-bourgeois poster on a wall, while a contemptible little bourgeois capitalist cowers in fear wearing his top hat.
The contrast between the two figures is striking - on one hand, we see the courageous worker standing tall and proud, unafraid to challenge the oppressive bourgeoisie. On the other hand, we have the cowardly capitalist who represents everything that is wrong with society at that time.
This image serves as a reminder of the struggles faced by working-class individuals fighting for equality and justice against those who seek to maintain their power and privilege at all costs. It encapsulates the tension between communism and capitalism, highlighting the inherent conflict between class interests.
Overall, this historical photograph not only captures a specific moment in time but also speaks to larger themes of politics, power dynamics, and social change. It is a testament to the bravery of those who stood up against oppression and fought for a better world for all.
