First Edition
Striking image of the poet inscribing the words of the title in his notebook set against a background of the Soviet flag, the tip of his fountain pen mimicked by a bayonet which is pointing towards a caricatured group of Western leaders marching off a cliff-edge headed by Churchill with a flaming torch, the flames emblazoned with the words Voina protiv SSSR [War against the USSR] and Truman, cradling an A-Bomb. The artist Viktor Borisovich Koretsky (19091998) studied at the Moscow School of Illustrative Arts 1921-9, coming under the influence of the Constructivists, his fascination with Heartfield's photomontages establishing his abiding interest in agit-prop poster art. From 1931 till his death in 1998, he continued to work in this genre, his technique based in a combination of photographs with realist gouache and pencil linework. Colour offset lithographic poster, (c.560 x 800 mm). Float framed. Some short splits to the edges, no loss, overall very good. Presented in an oak frame with conservation acrylic glazing.
