The travelling exhibition “Victory of People. The Role of Posters in Victory” from the Saratov Regional Museum of Local History is currently staged at the Saratov 1 railway station. The museum submitted the project to the National Contest of Best Regional Military and Historical Projects, which was held by the Russian Military Historical Society, and it was selected as one of the winning works.
The exhibition showcases propaganda posters of 1941-1945 from the museum’s collection. They can be called an artistic chronicle of that time, because they accurately and promptly reacted to the events at the front lines and in the rear.
