Size: 33 x 46 1/2 inches, numbered 5/100

This poster is dedicated to the horrors of the destruction and occupation Russian invaders brought to Ukraine. The artist quotes the image of Kateryna known to all Ukrainians from the painting and poem by Taras Shevchenko (1814 – 1861), the greatest Ukrainian poet, writer and artist.

In his poem, Shevchenko tells about the tragic fate of Kateryna, a young girl from a Ukrainian village, who was deceived and dishonoured by a Russian officer. After giving birth to a bastard son, she was rejected by her family and committed suicide. Kateryna became one of female symbols of Ukraine, reminding of all humiliations it suffered from the Russian colonization.

    On this poster, the author depicted famous Russian cultural figures, classics of the XIX and XX centuries, as captured soldiers of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. The poster shows portraits of Fyodor Dostoevsky, Mikhail Lermontov, Mikhail Bulgakov, Joseph Brodsky, Sergei Yesenin, Vladimir Vysotsky, Lev Tolstoy, Viktor Tsoi and Alexander Pushkin.

    With this work, the artist wanted to convey that the Russian culture, including the legacy of the depicted personalities, is currently being used by the terrorist regime of Putin to promote and justify his imperial ideas and aggression, regardless of the wishes of the Russian artists themselves. In other words, Russian culture has become another powerful Russian weapon in Ukraine and all over the world.

    «Russian warship – go fuck yourself!» – that was an answer of the Ukrainian  border guard Roman Hrybov to the suggestion to surrender made by Russian missile cruiser «Moskva», the flagship of the Russian navy in the Black sea. The event took place on the Ukrainian Snake Island on 24 February 2022, the first day of the full-scaled Russian invasion.

    The phrase became extremely popular in Ukraine and all over the world. It is widely used as a slogan during protests and demonstrations. In April 2022, the phrase was commemorated on a postage stamp by the Ukrainian postal service. Two days later, the «Moskva» was critically damaged by Ukrainian anti-ship missiles and sank the following day. After that the Ukrainian postal service issued a new postage stamp «Russian Warship...DONE! ».

    There appeared a lot of poster versions by Ukrainian artists based on this phrase. But the most popular images are those of Boris Grokh (used on the stamps) and Nikita Titov. Both can be seen on the exhibition «Ukraine. People. Courage. Posters». Those images became more then posters – they are symbols of the Ukrainians’ resistance against Russian aggression and determination in defending their homeland. Those images can be seen everywhere in Ukraine but also around the world like a symbol of support – from posters and banners to T-shirts and mugs.

    The poster shows a bombed-out building in the form of paska –  the national festive baking of Ukrainians for Easter.

    On Easter night 2022, the Russians attacked the districts of Kharkiv, and on Easter itself they shelled the Zolochiv and Chuguyiv districts of the region. As a result of the Russian shelling, 2 people were killed and at least 14 were wounded 

    «The Orthodox world saw that for Russia the great holiday of Easter means nothing. Russia continued to kill Ukrainian people, and even children, despite the church dates in the calendar.» - stated President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy in his video message on the morning of April 25, 2022.
