"Stalinist style" refers to the artistic and architectural approach that emerged during the rule of Joseph Stalin in the Soviet Union. This style is characterized by grandiose designs, monumental structures, and an emphasis on socialist realism, which aimed to glorify the achievements of the state and the working class. Buildings often feature neoclassical elements, large sculptures, and elaborate decorations that convey power and authority. In addition to architecture, Stalinist style influenced visual arts, literature, and propaganda. Artists were encouraged to create works that depicted idealized images of Soviet life and the Communist Party. This style sought to inspire loyalty and pride among citizens while promoting the state's ideology through accessible and relatable themes.
