Meeting of Komsomol Members with the Crimean Peasants 1930

Eugene Lanceray's 1930 painting, "Meeting of Komsomol Members with the Crimean Peasants", depicts a scene of social interaction in the Soviet Union. The painting, likely created during the period of collectivization, features a group of Komsomol members, young members of the Communist Party, meeting with Crimean peasants. The painting’s composition is largely symmetrical, with the figures in the center, with the background featuring a landscape with a mountain and sea. The painting is a notable example of Socialist Realism, a style of art that emphasized social and political themes.
