Description

Description:

Joseph Stalin, General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU)

Depiction of Stalin wearing the cadre uniform of the CPSU.

The year chosen is 1923 though this depiction of Stalin is applicable up to the late 1920s when his hairline started to recline more and beginnings of grey hair began. I chose 1923 because it was shortly after the official unification of the Soviet Republics into the Soviet Union in December 1922, and it also marks the escalation of Stalin's power struggle with Leon Trotsky and others as Vladimir Lenin's deteriorated health as a result of strokes that resulted in his death in 1924.

Notes:

(1)   These are generic depictions focused on displaying the uniform. While I have sought to create a very detailed depiction of the facial features, this too is generic, the actual head shape was not considered when designing this, a generic head shape is being used.

(2)   I have not uploaded this file for political purposes; it has been uploaded to display the uniform of a historical figure. Any usage of this file is permitted, however any favouriting or usage of this file for political purposes is not my responsibility. Any addition of disruptive or combative comments in the comment section may lead to immediate disabling of the comment section.
