Chinese Cultural Revolution Lithograph

A circle of villagers sits under a big tree, one reading from a sheet in hand.

This cultural revolution lithograph is from China, and dates to the 20th century. It is ink on paper. The Cultural Revolution in China lasted roughly from 1966 to 1976, and during those years posters and prints were used widely to carry political messages. Wide scene of seven or so figures gathered on the ground beneath a leaning pine, shirts in red, blue and tan. Hills and water fade softly into a pale background, with a red seal mark at upper left. It is 10.25 inches wide and 7.5 high.

A very calm meeting in a very leafy committee room.
