1973 Soviet propaganda poster - Cold War - CCCP - USSR - Lenin

1973 Soviet propaganda poster - Cold War - CCCP - USSR - Lenin

Located in PARIS, FR

The 1973 Soviet propaganda poster you’ve shared is a powerful visual tribute to the enduring legacy of the Bolshevik Revolution, a pivotal event in Russian history. The poster captures the revolutionary spirit that shaped the Soviet Union, emphasizing the leadership of Vladimir Lenin and the unity of the working class and peasantry under the Bolshevik banner. At the heart of the design is a commanding image of Lenin, depicted holding a document aloft—a symbol of the revolutionary decrees and the new socialist order he championed. Lenin's stern expression and strong posture convey determination and authority, reinforcing his role as the leader who guided the proletariat to victory. The background features a group of determined figures, representing the workers and soldiers who supported the Bolshevik cause. Their expressions are serious and resolute, reflecting the collective strength and solidarity that were central themes in Soviet propaganda. The use of red, a dominant color in the poster, symbolizes both the blood shed during the revolution and the hope of a communist future. The text on the poster, a quote from Lenin, reads: "The workers' and peasants' revolution, the necessity of which the Bolsheviks have always spoken of, has been accomplished." This declaration emphasizes the realization of the revolutionary goals long advocated by the Bolsheviks, affirming the legitimacy and success of the Soviet state. Created in 1973, this poster marks the 56th anniversary of the October Revolution. By this time, Soviet propaganda had evolved to reinforce the enduring relevance of the revolution's ideals amidst the ongoing Cold War. The poster serves as both a reminder of the Soviet Union’s revolutionary roots and a tool for rallying support for the government’s policies. The stark contrast between the red and green hues, along with the clear, bold typography, are characteristic of Soviet propaganda art...

Abstract Expressionist Composition on an Orange Field - Oil on Canvas

By Peter Witwer

Located in Soquel, CA

Multi-Color Abstract Expressionist Textural Mid-Century Abstract by Peter Witwer A bold mid-century abstract expressionist piece exploding with heavy texture and vivid color by San Francisco artist Peter Witwer (American, 1928-1968). Darker colors are layered atop each other, building up from white, yellow, and red through greens and blues into dark purple and black. The composition is surrounded by an orange field, creating a strong contrast. Unsigned, but was acquired with a collection of Witwer pieces. Displayed in a vintage wood frame. Linen size: 30"H x 16"W Framed size: 31.25"W x 17.25"W Provenance: Without a will and a family that had little interest in his art, nearly all of his possessions and close to 100 paintings were turned over to SF’s Conservators Office. His friend, Albert Richard Lasker, purchased all of Peter’s possessions (including the art) and has taken care of them until this day, always sensing there was something remarkable about the collection. Wanting Peter’s work to finally be seen, Richard came to Lost Art Salon with Peter’s story after reading about the new gallery in a July, 2005 issue of the SF Chronicle.

By Sébastien de Ganay 1

Located in Surfside, FL

Folded Flat Linen 03 Unique work 2016 Dimensions: H: 35 cm / W: 36 cm / D: 9 cm Materials: architectural wire mesh, raw linen Born in 1962 in Boulogne-Billancourt, France, Sebastien De Ganay studied political science and film at Columbia University in New York 1986-1990 ( (Bachelor of Political Science, Master of Fine Arts in Cinema) and is co-founder and editor of the art book publishing house onestar press. In addition to numerous exhibition participations, including the Centre Pompidou in Paris and the Landesmuseum Österreich in St. Pölten, Austria, the Institut Français in Vienna showed a comprehensive solo exhibition of the artist in 2014. In 2017, de Ganay realized a highly acclaimed installation for the Kunsthalle Krems. de Ganay lives and works in Austria. de Ganay produces minimalist abstract art works, painting, relief and wall sculpture. Sculptures made of aluminum, linen fabric, plastic, oil painting, wood and other materials. de Ganay joins a tradition of experimental artists. In this sense, for example, the Achromes by the Italian Arte-Povera artist Piero Manzoni, created in the 1960s, point the way for de Ganay's examination of folded linen fabric. "The process of de Ganay's Painting is the process of thought itself; it is a process which turns not away from painting, but towards it. And rather than seeing painting as closure, he presents his work to us as a space of multiple openings, layers, shadows and reflections. Painting is, as much as an object or a process, a state of flux." (Adrian Searle, art critic for The Guardian, London (1994)) In the style of Readymades and Arte Povera, de Ganay starts out from a simple utility material and combines this with an examination of the surface in the tradition of Minimal Art. He designed a limited edition chair "PLEASE" a “4 Piece Chair” customized by John Baldessari, Lawrence Weiner and Rirkrit Tiravanija.

Keith Haring's original poster for "Crack Down!" in 1986 - Pop Art

By Keith Haring

Located in PARIS, FR

Keith Haring's original poster for "Crack Down!" in 1986 is a powerful artistic statement against the growing drug crisis, particularly that of crack cocaine, which plagued some urban communities in the USA at the time. Haring, an iconic artist of the urban art movement and the fight against AIDS, used his distinctive style of clean lines and energetic shapes to evoke a powerful image. The "Crack Down!" poster features an emaciated, tormented figure, symbolizing the devastation caused by drug addiction. The message is clear and direct, highlighting the ravages of drugs on individuals and communities. Haring created this poster to raise awareness and mobilize the public in the face of this serious social crisis. The impact of the "Crack Down!" poster was not limited to its striking aesthetics, but also helped draw attention to the need for action to combat drugs and their devastating consequences. The work reflects Keith Haring's social commitment, as he used his art to champion important humanitarian causes. To this day, Keith Haring's "Crack Down!" poster remains a powerful symbol of the artist's commitment to social justice and his ability to use art...

Circa 1910 illustrated document by Paillon - Panoramic view of the Mont Blanc

Located in PARIS, FR

This rare circa 1910 illustrated document by Maurice Paillon presents a detailed panoramic view of the Mont Blanc Massif, one of the most legendary and awe-inspiring mountain ranges in the world. Capturing the majesty of Western Europe’s highest peak (4,809m) and its surrounding summits, glaciers, and valleys, this historical document serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a valuable mountaineering reference. At the time of its creation, alpinism was flourishing, with climbers from across Europe eager to conquer Mont Blanc and its neighboring peaks. The illustration, likely derived from photographic and topographic studies, offers a remarkably accurate relief representation of the range. Every major peak, ridge, and glacier is meticulously labeled, providing an invaluable geographical guide to the region. The sepia-toned print evokes the early 20th-century aesthetic, blending scientific precision with artistic craftsmanship. The inclusion of key locations such as Chamonix, Aiguille du Midi, Dôme du Goûter, and the Vallée...

By Lucien Boucher

Located in PARIS, FR

In 1939, Lucien Boucher, a renowned French artist and illustrator, created a captivating map for Air France titled "Nova et Vetera", which translates to "New and Old" in Latin. This original lithographic poster is a remarkable fusion of vintage cartographic art and modern aviation, crafted as a promotional piece for the airline. It beautifully symbolizes the connection between the historic routes of exploration and the new ones made possible by air travel. Boucher was celebrated for his unique ability to combine the romanticism of classic maps with the sleek, modern spirit of 20th-century flight. Among his series of illustrated maps for Air France, "Nova et Vetera" stands out with its nostalgic allure and references to history.

1923 original poster by Roger Broders for the PLM railway - Salins-les-Bains

By Roger Broders

Located in PARIS, FR

The 1923 original poster by Roger Broders for the Services Automobiles de la route du Jura promoting Salins-les-Bains et le Fort St André is an exquisite example of early 20th-century travel poster design. Commissioned by the P.L.M. (Paris-Lyon-Méditerranée) railway company, this artwork perfectly reflects the charm of the Jura region while showcasing Broders' mastery of composition, color, and visual storytelling. Roger Broders, one of the most celebrated travel poster artists of the Art Deco era, was renowned for his ability to capture the essence of a destination with elegance and clarity. His posters played a pivotal role in promoting tourism across France during the golden age of travel, often highlighting scenic routes, idyllic landscapes, and picturesque towns. In this particular work, Broders portrays the serene beauty of the Jura region with his characteristic style: clean lines, harmonious compositions, and a rich yet restrained color palette. The poster invites travelers to explore the famous Salins-les-Bains, a historic spa town celebrated for its saltwater springs, and the iconic Fort Saint-André, a stunning hilltop fortress offering panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. The artwork vividly conveys the natural splendor of the Jura, with rolling hills, lush greenery, and soft, sunlit skies. The carefully composed scene features winding roads, inviting travelers to journey through the tranquil region aboard the “Services Automobiles”—a service that complemented the P.L.M. railway network by connecting train passengers to remote and scenic destinations by road. Broders’ attention to detail is unmistakable. His use of warm earth tones and subtle shading creates a sense of depth and atmosphere, drawing the viewer into the landscape. The elegantly stylized typography adds to the poster’s charm, seamlessly integrating the text into the composition without distracting from the artwork itself. This poster is not only a masterpiece of travel advertising but also a reflection of the growing trend of leisure travel in the early 20th century. As rail travel flourished, companies like P.L.M. recognized the need to promote lesser-known but stunning destinations to affluent tourists seeking adventure, relaxation, and scenic beauty. Broders' work became an essential tool in this effort, helping to define the visual language of travel posters for decades to come. The 1923 Services Automobiles poster...
