Chinese Cultural Revolution Print

A quiet profile standing beside a hillside pagoda in rust-red ink.

This Cultural Revolution print of Chairman Mao is by Chairman Mao, from China, and dates to the 20th century. It is ink on paper. The Cultural Revolution was a political movement in China, generally dated from 1966 to 1976, during which posters and prints were produced in very large numbers. Ivory page with a thin red border. A man in a heavy dark jacket stands in profile, hands together, before a red hillside topped with a tiered tower. Three lines of Chinese text run below the scene. It is 5.1 inches wide and 7.4 high.

Calm and contemplative, with the scenery doing the shouting.
