"Old-timers talk about some frays, And they remember well those days! With cause all Russia fashions lays About Borodino!" is a 1942 propaganda poster by the Soviet artistic trio Kukryniksy. The poster depicts German soldiers, symbolized as wolves, fleeing from a victorious Russian army. The scene is set against the backdrop of a monument to the Battle of Borodino, which took place in 1812, highlighting the historical parallels between the Napoleonic and the Nazi invasions. The poster aims to inspire and motivate the Soviet people during the Second World War, reminding them of their historical strength and the importance of fighting for their homeland. The visual style, characterized by bold lines and strong contrasts, effectively conveys the message of Soviet resilience and German defeat.
