EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1934 showcases a vibrant poster of Soviet Central Asia, created by an anonymous artist for the Intourist company. The artwork, found in the esteemed collection of the Russian State Library in Moscow, beautifully captures the essence of travel and tourism during that era. The poster depicts a scene from Tajikistan or Uzbekistan, two countries nestled in the heart of Central Asia. In this colorful lithograph, we witness a bustling cotton harvest amidst picturesque landscapes. The image exudes both tranquility and productivity as workers diligently gather cotton against a backdrop of rolling hills and clear blue skies. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this piece also holds historical significance as it falls under the genre of Soviet political agitation art. It serves as a testament to how propaganda was utilized through fine art images to promote ideals and values during that time. Intourist played an instrumental role in promoting tourism within the USSR, making this poster an important artifact representing their efforts. While not mentioning commercial use specifically, it is evident that this artwork served as both promotional material for Intourist's services and as a celebration of Central Asian culture. Overall, this print offers us a glimpse into early 20th-century travel experiences while highlighting the beauty and allure of Soviet Central Asia.
