Description
Factory workers from the Kuibyshev Chocolate Factory is based on the photo below taken from a Soviet magazine of the 1980s. The photo shows happy workers taking the sun on their break. The idea of a workers’ paradise was nice but the reality of being a factory hand in Soviet Russia was not so black and white, something I was trying to get across in the painting.
