R375The tumultuous events of the Russian Revolution were matched by dramatic shifts in graphic art and design that continue to influence our visual landscape. David King, an internationally acclaimed graphic designer, selected the posters reproduced here from his own unparalleled collection.

King sets the posters in context and profiles the art directors whose vision played a vital role in creating these striking works.
