'Let's preserve our native culture and language' Pushkin 'Constitution 2020' billboard
Roadside billboard in Yekaterinburg, 21 March 2020: a painted portrait of the poet Alexander Pushkin beside the words 'Let's preserve our native culture and language' and a 'Конституция 2020' tag. The tells are the borrowed prestige of Russia's national poet, pasted onto a constitutional vote, and a virtue phrase with no amendment named. No sponsor is stated on the board.
