Original 1970s Soviet Propaganda Poster- Vladimir Mikhailovich (Fighting Pencil)

£45.00

An original Soviet propaganda poster, printed in 1975. The poster is criticising religion and the title translates to ‘We Won’t Go To Work: Empty Buckets Are A Bad Sign’.

The artwork is by Vladimir Mikhailovich, a member of the ‘Fighting Pencil’, a creative association of Leningrad-based artists, responsible for producing many propaganda posters in the USSR during the Cold War.

This poster was part of a large portfolio of propaganda posters, put together by a group of artists and poets/writers. We have the original portfolio cover but there isn’t a complete collection of posters, so we’re selling them individually.

Some wear to the edges and small aging spots on the paper. There is also a number penned in the bottom corner.

Measures 56cm x 42cm.
