Glory to great October! Poster (1917-1953)
Poster commemorating the first anniversary of the October Revolution in the post-Stalin era. The celebration of the founding of socialist rule, which began with the 1917 October Revolution, took on new significance under Nikita Khrushchev’s leadership following Stalin’s death.
This poster marks the early stages of the Soviet Union’s post-Stalin “Thaw,” reflecting a shift in national ideals and a reevaluation of the country’s revolutionary origins. Under Khrushchev, the October Revolution became not just a national holiday but also a political tool used to distance the state from Stalin’s legacy and to promote new narratives of optimism, reform, and progress aligned with the changing tone of Soviet leadership.
