Peasant's Dinner Lenin by Vladimir Fedoseevich Yatstenko (1915- ) (Oil on canvas, 127 x 144 cm, 1960) “Painted shortly after Stalin's death, the painting depicts hope and rising expectations. Both old and young people are gathered around the table sharing a meal. This was the traditional way of propagating the ideals of communism.” --Visser

“Showing Lenin in this very romantic painting with two young friends as they strolled in nature is the highest level of propaganda. Such a man clearly could do no harm to others.” – Anne Visser Fishermen by Nikolai Mikhailovich Shelyuto (Oil on canvas, 135 x 180 cm, 1959)

Lenin on Park Bench

“Lenin is no longer depicted as a leader “Lenin is no longer depicted as a leader. Rather he is shown relaxing with like any bourgeois family man. He no longer is the center of focus in the scene as all eyes are fixed on the young violinist. It's like the artist is trying to show Lenin as an outsider.” --Visser The Musicians by Vyacheslav Vasilevich Tokarev (1917- ) (Oil on canvas, 120 x 160 cm, 1970)
