Digital Edition – Vintage Soviet Baltic Folk Art Poster – Lithuanian Symbolic Mother (Litva)
A high-resolution digital edition of a striking piece of Soviet-era Baltic graphic art — the Lithuanian Symbolic Mother (Litva), by artist M. Belomlinskiy. Download instantly and print at your preferred size and paper stock.
The central figure is a majestic woman — a personification of Lithuania — rendered where Soviet Socialist Realism meets Baltic folk tradition. She holds a large amber necklace with each bead featuring iconic symbols of Soviet Lithuanian industry and culture: sailing ships, tractors, traditional architecture. Her golden crown, flowing patterned sash, and Lieluvārde belt-style skirt are typical of Baltic folk costume. The Lithuanian SSR flag and a stylised Gediminas Tower complete the composition.
The Russian verse at the bottom translates as:
“And today, as in the days of old,
The sea gives amber to Lithuania…
The flowering of all her talents
It carries to a free Lithuania.”
