Chinese Cultural Revolution Poster

The same red diagonals, softened to grey.

Chinese printers made this Cultural Revolution poster in ink on paper in China in the 20th century. Posters like it, commonly dated 1966 to 1976, were printed in many versions. A figure in a cap holds up a small red book in a grey-toned drawing against a bold orange-red field with lighter diagonals. Two lines of black characters appear below, and a smaller line of text sits at the foot.

About 27 by 15 inches. A narrow format that fits where wide ones won’t.
