The portrait is an ode to Dmitri Vrubel's 1990 Berlin Wall graffiti painting, "My God, Help Me to Survive This Deadly Love," that was inspired by the 1979 photograph that showed East German communist leader Erich Honecker and Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev embracing in the fraternal kiss.
The iconic kiss served as a customary greeting among male socialist leaders.

But the bromance may be on ice given that Putin's spokesman Dmitry Peskov wasn't happy with Trump's March campaign attack ad on Hillary Clinton which "demonized" the Russian president.
Maybethis mural might just rejuvenate the Trump-Putin media love affair. Maybethey'll even embrace in front of Bonanu's mural like these guys:
