The First Demonstration by Petrov-Vodkin
. 109
This is a picture by Petrov-Vodkin, portraying a workers family. The action takes place right after the October Revolution. The worker in the foreground is talking to his wife. His smiling wife is looking at him. She is holding him by the arm and is saying good-bye to him. He is leaving for the demonstration and she is staying at home with the baby. The baby is still sleeping in his bed. The clock on the wall shows that it is about 6 oclock in the morning. The older boy sitting by the window is waiting for his father because they are going to the festive demonstration together. The style of the furniture in the room emphasizes the period. The sunlight coming through the window gives a festive atmosphere to this scene. The picture is a masterpiece of Soviet art. It belongs to the collection of the Tretyakov Gallery.
