{"product_id":"framed-poster-2","title":"Framed Facsimile – Ksenia Klementyeva – “Down with Tipping!” – 1925 – Official State Russian Museum Edition","description":"\u003cp\u003eA museum-quality framed reproduction of one of the most socially pointed posters of the early Soviet avant-garde — Ksenia Klementyeva’s 1925 agitprop broadside \u003cstrong\u003e“ДОЛОЙ ЧАЕВЫЕ!”\u003c\/strong\u003e (“Down with Tipping!”), an authorised facsimile published in 2004 by Palace Editions \/ The State Russian Museum, St. Petersburg. Presented in your choice of frame colour, ready to hang.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design operates through a devastating visual argument. The upper panel — headed \u003cstrong\u003e“РАНЬШЕ…”\u003c\/strong\u003e (“Before…”) — shows service workers bowing in submissive posture before wealthy bourgeois clients, the body language of Tsarist-era class subservience rendered in flat, high-contrast Constructivist geometry. The lower panel — \u003cstrong\u003e“ТЕПЕРЬ”\u003c\/strong\u003e (“Now”) — shows a proud, emancipated Soviet waiter standing tall, arms crossed, refusing a cash bribe with quiet authority. Klementyeva integrates bold Cyrillic block typography directly into the geometric framework — a hallmark of the Constructivist agitprop tradition in which text and image are inseparable components of a single visual argument. Commissioned for the regional workforce in Baku during the NEP era, the poster addressed the persistence of tipping culture as a remnant of pre-revolutionary class relations. Ksenia Klementyeva (1896–1984) was one of the few prominent female voices in Soviet graphic design of the 1920s, and this work stands as one of her most resolved and historically resonant compositions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nArtist: Ksenia Klementyeva (К.А.
