Soviet Space Graphics, Alexandra Sankova, 2020This is a really pretty book, but lacking in context for my taste. Some of the images show significant similarity with illustrations from the other side of the iron curtain at the same time - for example, if you changed the labels on some of the cutaway illustrations they could have been in the Eagle, next to the Dan Dare comics. But others are completely different - and I would be really interested to what extent artists were working from similar models, what influences were going in each direction and so on. I’m too much of a nerd to have the images without information. -- source link
