EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Soldiers of the Red Army on manoeuvre receive a welcome and rest at a Kolkhoze, 1937" transports us back to a significant moment in history. The image, captured by Georgiy Konstantinovich Savitsky, showcases the camaraderie between soldiers and civilians during the Soviet era. In this vibrant colour litho, we witness soldiers taking a well-deserved break from their military exercises at a Kolkhoze - an agricultural cooperative farm. As they arrive at the farm, weary but determined, they are greeted with open arms by the hardworking farmers who offer them respite and hospitality. The scene is filled with warmth as soldiers gather around a traditional Russian samovar to enjoy some tea. This simple act symbolizes unity and solidarity between those serving in the army and those working tirelessly on the land. The photograph not only highlights Russia's rich agricultural heritage but also serves as a reminder of the collective effort required to build a strong nation. It captures both the strength of these soldiers defending their country and the resilience of farmers sustaining it through their laborious work. Savitsky's composition beautifully encapsulates this harmonious interaction between two essential pillars of society – military defense and agriculture. Through this powerful image, we are transported back to 1937 when these brave troops found solace amidst fields teeming with life while forging lasting connections with fellow countrymen.
