I have a set of Soviet themed postcards, judging from the red flags flying in several of them, and would like more information.
They all appear to be by the same artist and feature scenes of people fighting for the Revolution (?) and include many horses. One example can be seen on the wall in the attached portrait of the artist. I can make out very little Russian but have guessed that the artist is Chekov. Can anyone give me a translation from the attachment along with an approx date for the publication. Thank you very much.

Soviet painter
Hi !
The soviet painter is : Mitrofan Borisovitch GREKOV (1882-1934), specialist in horses and WWI paintings. I believe the year is 1954.
