Kukryniksy "A collective pseudonym of three Soviet artists who always worked in concert: Mikhail Kupriianov [1903 - ], Porfirii Krylov [1902 - ] and Nikolai Sokolov [1903 - ]. The collective was famous for its political and social caricatures in Pravda, Krokodil and many other newspapers and periodicals. In 1925 they began their work as a group; in 1929 they began to make joint contributions to exhibitoins; in 1933 they joined the permanent staff of Pravda. In the late 1930s and during the war they did many biting caricatures of Mussolini and Hitler. After the war they continued as political caricaturists and also gave particular attention to book illustration [1950 edition of Gorky's Mother and 1958 edition of Chekhov's Lady with a Dog ]. In 1965 they were lauareates of the Lenin Prize."[Osborne, Harold, editor. The Oxford C ompanion to Twentieth-Century Art. Oxford University Press. 1988.]
