After the communist revolution in 1917, the new
government took control of the art establishment in Russia, nationalising
all art collections and laying down the principles that were to govern the
creation of works of art. During the next decades Socialist Realism became
the mainstream art-movement, enclosing the work of nearly all Soviet
artists: they were required to produce art comprehensible to the masses
that would inspire admiration for the dignity of the working man and his
task of building communism. All Soviet Art items on this site are originals and imported from the former Soviet Union.
