"The Tragedy Of Russia" -- "The Soviet Government appears deliberately to prevent intercourse between the Russian people and the rest of the World", said Mr. Attlee, British Prime Minister, when he addressed the Trades Union Conference at Brighton on October 24th last.Referring to "The Russian Tragedy", he added that the Russians were subjected to "fantastic misrepresentations" about other nations.Here is a series of propaganda photographs turned out by the Russians - for the Russian spheres of influence. On the surface, it must be admitted, there is little that appears insidious or dangerous - though one statement, "The Red Army won the war against Japan", will probably evoke cries of dissent from Hollywood".

The Road of the War Prisoners Vasily Vereshchagin (Russian, 1842-1904). The Road of the War Prisoners, 1878-1879. Oil on canvas, 71 1/4 x 117 11/16 x 2 1/4 in. (181 x 298.9 x 5.7 cm). Vasily Vereshchagins two monumental paintings depicting wartime violence stem from the artists own experience as a volunteer correspondent and combatant during the Russo-Turkish War in 1877-78. In A Resting Place for Prisoners, a snowstorm beats down on Turkish prisoners who are monitored by Russian soldiers wielding lances while a horse and carriage are buried under the snow in the foreground. The Road of the War Prisoners depicts bloodied, frozen prisoners in the storms aftermath. Crows perch atop the telegraph wires and pick at the lifeless prisoners strewn across the road. Openly antiwar in its biting realism and unflinching portrayal of death, The Road of the War Prisoners was rejected for the czars collection. In 1891, Vereshchagin sold both canvases to New York collectors still haunted by the
