Radakov, A. Christmas Jester 1929

Anti-religious poster by Soviet artist Alexei Radakov (1879 — 1942). Rozhdestvenskiy Petrushka [Christmas Jester]. 103 x 70 cm, c. 1929.
This poster was likely produced for the Soyuz Voinstvuyushikh Bezbozhnikov (Union of Militant Atheists). This organization's motto was "The fight against religion is the fight for Socialism" and this appears in the upper right corner. "Petrushka" is a common jester puppet in Russian puppet folk theater.
