August 1991

Some vector illustrations made for the temporary exhibition of the Estonian TV Tower dedicated to August 1991. Here is a short description of the situation in August 1991, taken from the TV Tower's website: 

Just before midnight, the Supreme Council of the Republic of Estonia reaches a decision to declare Estonia no longer a part of the USSR and once more an independent nation. Early in the morning 
of 21 August, Soviet assault troops attempted to seize the TV Tower. People from all over Estonia came out to defend the tower. A handful of armed Estonian defenders barricaded themselves into the rooms at the top.
