Get Well, in Toronto, is a bar with personality. It has religious icons, video games, and most surprising of all, a large painting of Soviet glitterati. In addition to a grinning General Secretary, there's Molotov (between the young lady and Stalin), and Voroshilov (hidden mostly by The Green Blob of Reflected Light).
Kalinin, the ostensible head of state, is seated in front of Stalin. He just stamped papers all day and received the mail.
Not something you see every day in a Toronto bar. Freaky.
Found the painting online: An Unforgettable Meeting by Vasily Efanov. It depicts the All-Union Conference of Women Home-makers and Engineering and Technical Workers in Heavy Industry in the Kremlin.
He won a prize for the painting. A better quality image (of the original) from The Internets below:
