Chinese Cultural Revolution Poster

A dockside smile, cranes in the distance, and crates stacked high.

This poster was printed in ink on paper in China in the 20th century, during the Cultural Revolution. Harbor workers and trade were featured in prints about industry and national pride. A woman in a blue jacket with a white towel at her neck fills the upper part of the scene, her hand to her chest, while cranes, crates and tiny workers sit below her. The sky is pale blue.

About 30 by 21 inches. Bright, brisk and nautical.
