Summary/Abstract: The article deals with development of Russia’s female allegories in the time of World War I in the context of modernization of gender relations in Russian society. The author demonstrates that the image of Russian peasant-woman, baba, became a symbol of Russian revolt during the Russian revolution of 1905- 1907. In the time of World War I this image served as an allegory of Russia, being in competition with both abstract modernist female images and image of Russia as a tsarina. The author makes suggestion that the image of baba, symbolizing active, fertile female type, later contributed to the creation of visualizing Motherland in the Soviet culture.
