Produced to mark the Conference of Communist and Workers’ Parties of Europe, held in Berlin in June 1976, this is a quintessential example of late Soviet heroism: a stalwart worker stands at a podium, set against a globe with Europe at its centre, projecting the message of international cooperation outward to the world. Gausman works in a striking tri-colour palette of deep crimson, navy blue, and cream — restrained, graphic, and compositionally assured.
Georgiy Gausman (1928–1994) was a prominent Soviet graphic artist and poster designer, a member of the USSR Union of Artists, and a key contributor to the visual landscape of the Soviet era.
