8) 1920's

the propaganda of graphic design and poster illustration in 1920's soviet russia

soviet russian propaganda posters promoted unity and socialism, themes such as helping the country rather than yourself, russia being as one, the graphic design was heavy in these posters as they were all done in an art deco style, which was very fashionable at the time, the posters always showed images of the ideal person, a very fit man with sweat on his brow from manual labour smilling and looking proud of the fact that he is helping his country, or a wealthy looking still very fit man and his beautiful family. This set an ideal fro russian men, they all strived to be like that, they didnt complain about mqanual labour as they were all helping their country, and were all very proud of it.
