EDITORS COMMENTS
The print of "For everlasting peace!" by Pyotr Semyonovich Golub captures the essence of political agitation and propaganda during the Cold War era. Created in 1949, this colorful lithograph found in the collection of the Russian State Library in Moscow is a powerful statement against imperialism and a call for peace.
Golub's work reflects the socialist realism style prevalent in Soviet political agitation art, using satire to convey a strong message against war and conflict. The image is a stark reminder of the tensions between the Soviet Union and the USA during this period, with both superpowers vying for global dominance.
The bold colors and striking imagery draw viewers into a world where peace is not just an ideal but a necessity for humanity's survival. The use of propaganda techniques highlights the power of art as a tool for social change and activism.
As we look back on this piece today, it serves as a poignant reminder of our shared history and the importance of striving towards lasting peace. Golub's work continues to resonate with audiences around the world, reminding us that despite our differences, we all ultimately seek the same goal - everlasting peace.
