Magazine "Ogonek": illustrations of Soviet life
Happy people are open, calm smiles and bright eyes, confident about the future, ready to take on the day. You look exactly like us ordinary Soviet citizens from the pages of the legendary magazine "Ogonek" 50 years... National magazine "Ogonek" since its founding in 1899, is intended to explore life with photos and story.
In the 50's a huge country only came after a terrible war. At that time the people were full of enthusiasm and hope for a brighter future, and "Light" were filled with bright shots illustrating the cheerful history about the labor exploits and socialist construction.
Of course, these photos were staged and carefully retouched, but it's not just pictures, it's the illustrations for a generation, an era, which is so radically different from our.
