Anatoly Belsky, film poster for The Private Life of Peter Vinograd, 1934

The Russian avant garde film posters of the mid-1920s to early 1930s

are unlike any film posters ever created.

 

Although this period of artistic freedom in the Soviet Union was brief,

these powerful, startling images remain

among the most brilliant and imaginative posters

ever conceived

During the brief period of artistic freedom before Stalinism,

these avant garde film posters were as bold and innovative

as the movies they advertised

If It Were My Home

 

The headlines tell a lot

about the crisis in Yemen:

internal strife,

evacuations of international aid workers,

Saudi Arabian airstrikes.

 

But you may have one very basic question

that you can't easily find an answer for:

How big is Yemen, anyway?

 

You can look at maps

and check out Wikipedia

but wouldn't it be great

to just to slap an outline of Yemen

on top of a map of the United States

to get a sense of its size?

 

IfItWereMyHome.com

lets you do just that.
