The main message of this source is that Stalin is a great commander of the Red Army and a true successor of Lenin.
This can be seen from how the army strived and charged on with Stalin leading them as commander under a picture of Lenin. The caption is “Under Lenin’s banner, Forward to victory.” Under Stalin, there is a group of men from the red army.
This shows that Stalin is able to lead the red army to victory in honour of Lenin.
This is so because the Red Army was a powerful asset to the party and by doing this, Stalin was able to consolidate his place as a great leader in the Red Army.

The main message of the poster is Stalin wanted people to look-up to him as a omnipotent being. This can be seen from Stalin portrayed bigger than others and has a shining star behind him making him look like an angel. This gives people the impression that Stalin is a person everyone respects and someone they look-up to. Thus Stalin is shown to be a respected person. From contextual knowledge, I know that Stalin has made many propaganda posters showing that he is a good, kind and respected person to cover up the misdeeds he has done. Therefore, Stalin wanted to make people respect and look up to him through propaganda so as to make everyone think he is good rather than a evil/cruel person who kills many people.

Propaganda of Stalin’s doctored photograph(edited photo)
The main message of the photograph is that Stalin had a strong sense of superiority. This can be seen from the two photographs, where initially Nikolai Yezhov, one of stalins political enemy was beside him, however the photograph was doctored where Yezhov was erased away, the photo has then successfully made Stalin stands out and became the focus of the photo. This suggests that Stalin is more influential and powerful compared to his political enemies. From my contextual knowledge, those who seemed as a threat to stalins rule were edited out of these photos in measure to boost stalins authority and status, making Stalin look more like a reputable leader.

The main message is that communism brought the success of the 5 year plan. This can be seen from the red flags placed at the top of the various industrial buildings, the flag representing communism. The worker that takes up majority of the picture is holding on to the Communist flag, representing all the workers supporting Stalin for the 5 year plan. This shows that Stalin had succeeded in the 5 year plan with the support of the workers.

“Stalin is the wisest of all people
You couldn’t get a more beloved father.
Radiating light beams onto
Children of all nations, of all tribes.

Stalin is like a fairytale sycamore tree.
His power is visible from everywhere.
Every leaf is an expensive diamond
Shining soft light on you.

Remember forever, pioneer:
Stalin is your best role model.
Like a father, his smile shines on
Children of all nations, of all tribes.

Dzhambul. ”

The main message is that Stalin is viewed with superiority and has a lot of power and control over the people. Many people look up and idolise him because of his behaviour towards the people who are loyal to him. This can be seen from ‘ Stalin is your best role model.’ , ‘ Stalin is the wisest of all people ’ and ‘ His power is visible from everywhere ’ .
This shows that Stalin is like a father, a role model on the citizens, making the citizens respects him. People take him as the wisest, the most powerful, he is like a god that can control all things to people in Russia.
From contextual knowledge, I know that Stalin use propaganda message to manipulate his people to boost his authority and status and to make opposition even more impossible

The main message of this source is to portray Stalin as a superhero, one who possess special powers.
This is evident in the source as Stalin is seen wearing Superman's outfit with a cape standing amidst the skies with his bulging muscles.
This suggest that Stalin wants to be associated with a superhero, someone who is  powerful and strong for the Soviets to look up to.
This is supported from my contextual knowledge as Stalin used political cartoons and posters to brainwash people into believing that he was the rightful successor and leader of the Soviet Union. One such method was portraying himself as a superhero to the Russians as seen in this picture.
