The image displays a framed Soviet revolutionary propaganda poster, attributed to V
The image displays a framed Soviet revolutionary propaganda poster, attributed to V. Lebedev and dating from the 1920s, presented within a museum exhibit. The poster graphically depicts a stylized male sailor in a black uniform, cap, and neck scarf, holding a rifle, with his left arm raised and outstretched. He faces right, against a background featuring a battleship and industrial structures on the left, and a classical building, visually consistent with the Winter Palace or Smolny Institute, engulfed in smoke and flames with a ground-based military vehicle, on the right. Red Cyrillic text at the top reads "ДА ЗДРАВСТВУЕТ АВАНГАРД РЕВОЛЮЦИИ!" (Long Live the Avant-Garde of the Revolution!) and prominently at the bottom, "КРАСНЫЙ ФЛОТ!" (Red Fleet!). Smaller text denotes "ПОЛИТОТДЕЛ РЕВВОЕНСОВЕТА" (Political Department of the Revolutionary Military Council). The poster is enclosed in a light-colored frame mounted on a wall. To its left, a dark metal panel with visible rivets is affixed. Below the poster, a partially visible information plaque displays Cyrillic text, including "РАСПОЛОЖЕНИЕ / КОРАБЛЕЙ БАЛТИЙСКОГО ФЛОТА" (LOCATION / OF BALTIC FLEET SHIPS). This exhibit is located in the Central Naval Museum in Saint Petersburg, Russia.
