Lenin in Siberia

Comrade Stalin is visiting an art exposition. Walking around, he pauses in front of a painting depicting a man and a woman in an intimate pose.

- What is the title of this decadent art ? - he demands.
- Lenin in Siberia - his aide replies.
- Who is this woman in the painting ?
- It is Nadhezda Krupskaya, Lenin's wife.
- And who is this gentleman ?
- It is Felix Edmundovich Dzerzhinsky, head of the Cheka.
- So where is Lenin ?
- Why, in Siberia, of course!

(Yes, it is a joke)
