I'm struck by the similarity of Shapaev's painting (above) and Norman Rockwell's treatment of the same subject (below). Yes, Shapaev's painting plays up the drama of the situation a little more, but still they're very similar. Both paintings are celebrations of progress and ordinary working people.
