"The long text is a Mao quote from his 'Talks at the Yan'an forum on literature and art'. It states that art has to be a part of the revolutionary machinery, a weapon to unify the people and to beat the enemy. The enemy is depicted in the lower left corner: a reformer within the Communist Party, his face painted grey as the villain in Chinese operas."
