Suryaninov, titled “Le Vietnam vit, combat, vaincra !” (“Vietnam lives, fights, will win!”), is a striking example of Cold War political graphics expressing solidarity with North Vietnam during the Vietnam War.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"477\" data-end=\"806\"\u003eDominated by a bold red silhouette of a female figure holding a rifle, the composition merges symbolism and narrative. The figure, emblazoned with a large red star, represents both the Vietnamese nation and revolutionary strength. Her calm yet resolute profile conveys determination, while the weapon signifies active resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"808\" data-end=\"1220\"\u003eWithin the white negative space of her body unfolds a series of vignette scenes rendered in blue tones. These illustrate everyday life and struggle in Vietnam: agricultural labor, industrial work, reading and education, and armed resistance. This layered imagery emphasizes the idea of a people united across all aspects of society—workers, soldiers, and civilians—engaged in a collective fight for independence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1222\" data-end=\"1492\"\u003eThe central slogan in Cyrillic reinforces the message of resilience and inevitable victory. At the bottom, a smaller inscription references the 25th anniversary of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, situating the poster within a commemorative and political context.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1494\" data-end=\"1869\"\u003eStylistically, the work reflects the late Soviet graphic language of the 1960s–1970s: bold color blocking, simplified forms, and strong symbolic composition. The use of red and blue contrasts heightens both emotional impact and ideological clarity, while the integration of narrative scenes within a larger figure demonstrates a sophisticated approach to visual storytelling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1871\" data-end=\"2180\"\u003eMore than simple propaganda, this poster serves as a testament to international socialist solidarity, illustrating how Soviet artists visually supported allied movements abroad. Today, it stands as an important historical artifact of the Vietnam War era and a compelling example of politically engaged design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2182\" data-end=\"2363\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eA rare and visually commanding piece, “Le Vietnam vit, combat, vaincra !” is highly sought after by collectors of Soviet posters, political art, and 20th-century graphic design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriginal Poster\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePropaganda - Communism - USSR - Vietnam\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Democratic Republic of Vietnam at 25 years old\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGood condition, slight creases, small tears\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Suryaninov V.","offers":[{"title":"88 x 58 \/ A-","offer_id":53685918728519,"sku":null,"price":1200.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0564\/9275\/3081\/files\/AP_24783Insta2.jpg?v=1778076467","url":"https:\/\/galerie1881.com\/en\/products\/ap_24783","provider":"Galerie 1881","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
