Soviet constructivist poster

Soviet constructivist poster depicting a monumental steel barrier gate rising diagonally across the frame, seen from a steep low angle so the structure looms over everything. At the base, a tiny anonymous figure holds up a small rectangular document toward an unseen checkpoint slot in the gate's face. Flat planes of brick red, soot black, and off-white paper, with one accent ochre picking out the document. Bold geometric composition with strong diagonal sweep, photomontage feel, monumental scale conveyed by the dwarfed figure. The words 'SHOW YOUR PAPERS' set in bold sans-serif across the upper third. A small printer's mark sits in the lower right corner. 9:16 portrait phone wallpaper.
