EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: "Kirov, a prominent figure in Soviet history, visits the Putilov factory during the height of industrialization in Petrograd (now St. Petersburg), Russia. This print captures a significant moment in time when Kirov, accompanied by other officials and workers, toured the assembly shop of the factory. The Putilov factory played a crucial role in fulfilling the ambitious goals set forth by the Five-Year Plan - an economic strategy aimed at rapidly transforming Russia into an industrial powerhouse. The image showcases workers diligently engaged in their tasks, symbolizing their dedication to achieving socialist ideals and contributing to the nation's progress. This historic photograph is part of the esteemed Collection of State Museum- and Exhibition Centre ROSIZO located in Moscow. It serves as a testament to Russian avant-garde art and Soviet propaganda that celebrated heroes of socialist labor like Kirov. Painted with oil on canvas by Pyotr Iosifovich Smukrovich (1878-1942), this fine art image immortalizes not only Kirov's visit but also highlights his association with shock work movement - an initiative promoting high productivity through intense labor efforts. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back to a pivotal era where industry thrived amidst political change. The sight of tractors being assembled within these walls reminds us of Russia's determination towards modernization and its enduring legacy. "
