It is not a painting: the image is assembled from various shades and textures of natural wood veneers inlaid into a solid wooden base. The stylized, high-contrast profile of Lenin is typical of 1960s–70s Soviet monumental art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eItem Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSubject:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vladimir Lenin (profile portrait)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wall art panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTechnique:\u003c\/strong\u003e Marquetry \/ intarsia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wood – multi-wood veneer inlay on a solid wooden base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Socialist Realism \/ Mid-Century Modern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 40 x 38 cm (15.7 x 15 in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 1.5 cm (0.6 in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal\/Reproduction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Original\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e USSR (Soviet Union)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eUsed, in good vintage condition with signs of time that add to its character.

Different wood grains create light and shadow, giving the portrait a warm, organic feel quite different from printed posters. A substantial piece of Soviet propaganda art, it is a strong addition for collectors of USSR history and socialist art, or a distinctive accent for mid-century wall decor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eShipping\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCarefully packed and shipped worldwide from Ukraine with a tracking number.
