PH1993:0222
Description:
- The early 1930s marked the beginning of limitations on creative freedom in the Soviet Union, government approval of Constructivism, and the arrival of Socialist Realism in the arts, literature, and architecture. This photograph may reflect the times in the architects' rather sombre facial expressions and the copy of 'Pravda' in the foreground, an apparent reference to the Communist presence in the creative process.
