Description
Album 3 Shenyang & environs, Image 1 During the Cultural Revolution, Shenyang Zhongshan Square (沈阳中山广场) was renamed to Shenyang Red Flag Square (沈阳红旗广场). Shenyang, Liaoning Province. "I noticed the statue initially from ten blocks away as we drove toward the city center. First I glimpsed an enormous head, then an outstretched arm, and then to my astonishment, an entire statue. It was Mao, 100 feet high, wearing a trench coat, staring resolutely ahead and flanked at the base by carvings of adoring workers, peasants, and soldiers — the most extraordinary manifestation of the chairman's personality cult I saw anywhere in China."--Chinoy, M. (1999). In China live: People power and the television revolution (pp. 41–42). Rowman & Littlefield Publishers.
