Description
Vse na trudfront! [All to the Labor Front!], a poster by a Yaroslavl ROSTA artist, possibly by Pyotr Alyakrinsky (1892-1961, Meritorious Art Worker of the Russian Federation). Published by YarROSTA, Yaroslavl, 1920, 100.3 x 44.1 cm.
At the end of 1920, provisioning the country with fuel for the coming winter became the critical task of the day. Alyakrinsky was the principal artist of the Yaroslavl ROSTA visual propaganda department. A willing viewer may detect some general similarities between this work and some of his later posters, but our attribution is, of course, highly tentative.
Alyakrinsky was a graduate of the Moscow Technical School of Sculpture, Painting and Architecture (class of 1910). In 1918-22, he worked in Yaroslavl. Subsequently, he returned to Moscow, and worked as a magazine artist and book illustrator. The artist continued to produce posters through his career, becoming especially active in this genre during the Second World War and first post-war years.
