Item Details
Description
Za Rodinu! [For the Motherland!], a poster by Alexei Kokorekin (1906-1959, People's Artist of the Russian Federation). Published by Iskusstvo, Moscow - Leningrad, 1942. 81.5 x 50.5 cm.

Kokorekin, a graduate of the Krasnodar Art School, arrived in Moscow in 1929 and eventually secured an artist's position with IZOGIZ. He soon earned a solid reputation both as a Realist easel painter and as a poster artist (taking second prize in the important 1934 poster competition 10 Years Without Lenin). Kokorekin's war-time body of work (over 30 posters) earned him the 1946 Stalin Prize. For the Motherland was hailed by Soviet critics as one of the most important posters of the war period.

Search extension words: Russian poster, Soviet propaganda poster.
