Dmitriy Moore is perhaps the most famous and talented of the 
early Soviet graphic artists. Well versed in modern art and the 
traditions of folk art, he entered the arts profession in 1907, when 
the editor of one of the newspapers saw his drawings of tsarist 
ministers. His early works were allegorical - dragons and the 
figure of death represented for capitalists and imperialists. Works 
from the 1920s, like his popular recruitment poster titled Have 
You Signed Up as a Volunteer? It was direct and representative. 
He was known to fellow artists as the "Commissioner of 
Revolutionary Propaganda Art".
