This Soviet poster was created in 1956 by artist N. Vatolina. The text at the top reads: “Добро пожаловать!”, which translates to “Welcome!”. The image depicts a teacher warmly greeting schoolchildren as they enter the classroom on the first day of school. At the front, a girl holds a large bouquet of flowers, a traditional gesture for teachers in Soviet culture, while other children smile eagerly behind her. The cheerful, idealized scene emphasizes education, respect for teachers, and the joy of collective learning. Posters like this reinforced the importance of schooling as both a civic duty and a source of pride for Soviet families in the postwar years.
