EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Anastas Mikoyan, a prominent Russian communist statesman during the 1920s and 1930s. Born in what is now Armenia, Mikoyan played a significant role in the Bolshevik movement, actively participating in the 1917 Russian Revolution and subsequent civil war. His loyalty to Stalin following Lenin's death earned him a position on the Communist Party Central Committee. In 1935, Mikoyan's influence grew even further when he was elected to the Politburo. He served as Minister of Foreign Trade from 1938 until falling out of favor with Stalin in 1949. However, after Stalin's demise in 1953, Mikoyan experienced rehabilitation and became First Deputy Premier under Nikita Khrushchev. Throughout his political career, Mikoyan held various positions of power within the Soviet Union. Notably, he served as Chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet until his retirement in 1965. This portrait captures his strong presence and distinctive mustache that became synonymous with his image. Preserved by the Russian State Film and Photo Archive in Krasnogorsk, this photograph offers us a glimpse into an era marked by revolution and political upheaval. It serves as a testament to Anastas Mikoyan's enduring legacy as both a revolutionary leader and influential statesman within Russia's tumultuous history during the early twentieth century.
