New Chinese Posters

In December 2001, the Institute was able to add ca. 50 Chinese propaganda posters and prints to its extensive collection. Subjects include the campaign to 'liberate Taiwan', the communal canteens and the 'small furnaces'.

Here are just a few examples, prior to conservation and cataloguing.
