I feel like I want a print of this. Do you know the name or artist?

The painting is called "It has come to pass" and is by Soviet artist Sergei Lukin.

Another good one in a similar style is "The winter palace is taken" by Vladimir Serov:

(I actually personally prefer this one a bit more over the first one.)

Same. This has a stronger sense of camaraderie, whereas the first almost accidentally invokes a sense of wonder at the palace even though it's likely trying to convey relief at the end of a long fight.

The expression seems more angry than awed.

I can see that but only when I get kinda close. From further away it looks a bit like awe or wonder or relief

I agree — though at first glance, it looked like the guy was kissing the hand of the guy on the right. Now I agree with you.
