Vladimir Kalensky (1920 to 2012) was a muralist and poster artist who joined the Artists' Union in 1957. A Kalensky poster with this slogan was published in Moscow by Sovetskii Khudozhnik, the publishing house that mainly served the Artists' Union, in 1966.
On the poster
Lenin fills the foreground in high-contrast black and white, right fist raised, a red carnation at his lapel. Sweeping cadmium-red banners arc behind him in bold diagonal curves, and three groups of marching soldiers and workers recede into the background in monochrome. White bold capitals in the upper-right quadrant read "Да здравствует социалистическая революция!" (Long Live the Socialist Revolution!).
