EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the iconic image of Lei Feng, a Chinese soldier of the People's Liberation Army in 1962. Lei Feng became an emblematic figure in China's posthumous Learn from Comrade Lei Feng campaign, which was initiated by Mao Zedong in 1963. In this propaganda-driven movement, Lei was portrayed as a selfless and modest man who dedicated himself to the Communist Party, Chairman Mao, and the Chinese people. Tragically, Lei met his untimely demise while on duty due to an accident. However, his legacy lived on through this powerful photograph that showcased him wearing a military uniform with a fur hat atop his head. The image not only symbolizes patriotism but also serves as inspiration for generations of Chinese youth to follow in Lei's footsteps. His unwavering commitment to communism and his role as a model citizen were meant to inspire others towards similar dedication. As we observe this portrait today, it reminds us of the significant influence propaganda can have on shaping public perception during times of political upheaval. This photograph stands as a testament to both the power of visual imagery and its ability to immortalize individuals like Lei Feng within history books and collective memory alike.
