Summary

A demonstration of workers from the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Putilov_plant" class="extiw" title="en:Putilov plant">Putilov plant</a> in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petrograd" class="extiw" title="en:Petrograd">Petrograd</a> (modern day St. Peterburg), Russia, during the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/February_Revolution" class="extiw" title="en:February Revolution">February Revolution</a>. The left banner reads (misspelt*) "Feed [plural imperative] the children of the defenders of the motherland"; the right banner, "Increase payments to the soldiers' families - defenders of freedom and world peace". Both refer to the economic toll the First World War was having on civilian life. * On the left-hand banner, the 3rd word is spelt з-а-с-ч- ...(z-a-s-ch- ...), but the 3rd and 4th letters are more properly spelt with the single letter щ, transliterated as shch. The other flag uses the same word (albeit in a different case) – see the first word on the 3rd line, which correctly uses the letter щ.
