Chinese Cultural Revolution Poster

A raised hand against a gold sunrise.

China produced this Cultural Revolution poster in the 20th century in ink on paper. Colour lithographed posters of this kind were commonly made in large print runs. A central figure in a green uniform raises one hand against a burst of golden rays, with a crowd of figures holding red flags at the edges. A line of red characters across the white band below is left untranslated here. The colours are warm and glossy, with a slightly worn surface.

About 21 by 30 inches. Warm, cheerful, and eye-catching.
