'''Graphic Design - Soviet Russia 1918'''

One of the distinct types of posters design are evident. This style is practiced most notably by [[Victor Deni]] and Dmitri S. Moor, was the development of the political illustration.

Moor's allegories gained power in enlargement, with haunting contrasts of then and now, enemies versus heroic allies, [[imperialism]] against workers' struggles, to which he added a simple slogan: ''Death to World Imperialism''.

Industry, squeezed by the reactionary [[dragon]], is on the point of rescue by the armed forces of revolution.
Less typical of '''Moor's''' work is the lone figure of his poster appealing for the victims of the 1920 [[famine]], with the single word of ''Pomogi'' (help). The drawings of the skeletal old man and the two wretched stalks of barley are no longer illustrations but have become a single [[graphic design]] idea, an [[ideogram]] of [[hunger]].

Many of Moor's and Deni's posters were restricted to black and red.
Red could be used to identify [[revolutionary]] elements, particularly flags, worker's shirts and peasant blouses. Black was used for the main drawing and as a solid colour for the clothes of [[capitalist]] and [[priest]].
