Untitled is a 1930 by Valentina Kulagina, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This postcard shows a worker in a cap and goggles welding on a rooftop. Behind him, a half-built skyscraper looms, with a giant red word in Cyrillic letters. The city below is tiny, like a model, and the sky is a flat blue. The welding sparks look almost like fireworks against the building’s metal frame. The whole scene feels like a mix of action and construction energy. If you like this bold style, check out The Museum of Modern Art for more prints like this.
