Long live the equal rights woman of the USSR. 1935

This 1935 poster by G. Klutsis celebrates the equal rights of Soviet women and their active role in building the country. A large portrait of Stalin rises in the background, his raised hand symbolizing guidance and leadership. The slogan “Да здравствует равноправная женщина СССР” translates to “Long live the equal rights woman of the USSR.” The additional line at the bottom, “Активная участница в управлении государством, хозяйственными и культурными делами страны,” translates to “An active participant in governing the state and in the economic and cultural affairs of the country.” The women in the foreground represent professionals, workers, and organizers, showing their growing responsibilities in all areas of public life. The poster stands as a strong example of Soviet propaganda promoting the political and social achievements of women.
