Chinese Cultural Revolution Poster

Raised arms, a red banner and a sun the size of a bay window.

This poster was printed in ink on paper in China in the 20th century, in the Cultural Revolution years. Crowds with raised fists and banners, set against a red sun, were frequent in the period’s imagery. A worker in a white shirt holds a long red banner above a group of cheering people, with a young woman at the lower left. A large pink-white sun glows behind them.

About 42 by 30 inches. Good news, stretched to wall size.
