Fantastic photograph from her legendary series "The Irrational Times", documenting the Cultural Revolution. The scene depicted appears to show a young party member in fatigues haranguing a young crowd. However, given how the crowd are dressed, their expressions and her hand gesture, it may be that she is singing a patriotic song for them, under the intense summer sun.
Signed, dated, #3/30. Professionally matted to 20" x 24" behind museum glass in a white metal gallery frame.
