Title: We Are Speeding Towards Socialism.


This poster belongs to a vintage set of 32 Soviet poster reproductions called “Soviet Political Posters” published in 1983 in the Soviet Union (Leningrad).


This iconic Soviet propaganda poster, titled "Towards Socialism, 1931" created by M Dobrokousky, captures the essence of the communist movement in Russia during that era. The artwork is a powerful representation of the ideals and aspirations of the Soviet Union as it embarked on its journey towards socialism. The poster features a dynamic composition with bold colors and striking imagery. In the foreground, we see a group of determined workers marching forward with purposeful strides, their faces filled with hope and determination. They are accompanied by various symbols representing industry, agriculture, education, and science - all crucial pillars for building a socialist society. The artist skillfully employs vibrant red hues to symbolize revolution and unity while contrasting them against darker shades to depict capitalist oppression. This visual juxtaposition serves as a call to action for viewers to join forces in overthrowing capitalism and embracing communism. Through this piece of artistry, Dobrokousky effectively communicates the message that socialism is not just an abstract concept but an achievable reality through collective effort. It reflects the prevailing sentiment at that time when millions were rallying behind Lenin's vision for societal transformation. Decades later, this poster remains an important historical artifact showcasing how art was harnessed as a tool for political persuasion during one of history's most significant ideological movements. Its enduring impact lies in its ability to evoke emotions and inspire individuals towards social change even today.
