EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a group of young men during the Cultural Revolution era in Communist China, circa 1970. Dressed in blue uniforms and brandishing red flags, they are seen engaged in a rigorous training exercise, designed to strengthen both their minds and bodies. The rural countryside setting, with its towering trees and tranquil water, provides a stark contrast to the intensity of the scene. Propaganda during this period emphasized the importance of building strong, courageous, and disciplined citizens for the People's Republic of China. This image is a testament to the tough and resilient spirit of the Chinese people, as they embraced the challenges of the Cultural Revolution and worked to toughen their character. The young men in the photograph embody the determination and unwavering commitment to the Communist ideology that defined this era. The photograph is part of the Mary Evans / Grenville Collins Postcard Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, and serves as a powerful reminder of the historical significance of this period in Chinese history. It offers a unique glimpse into the daily life and experiences of the Chinese people during the 1970s, providing valuable insights into the cultural, social, and political landscape of Communist China during this time.
