Maquette for the poster The Soviet Turnip (Sovetskaia repka)

Dmitrii Moor was a Russian graphic designer and poster artist whose bold, geometric compositions defined Soviet visual propaganda in the early twentieth century. Working primarily in lithography and woodcut, he developed a stark, legible aesthetic that prioritized political messaging over decorative effect. His work bridged avant-garde formal innovation with the demands of state communication, establishing conventions for Soviet poster design that persisted for decades.
