CCTV Tower With Bountiful Harvest

The People’s Liberation Army and a couple of farmers celebrate the bumper harvest and glorious city.

The farmer holds two apples in a rather suggestive manner, perhaps just happy with such big pieces of fruit in his hands. No sign of pollution just bright skies complete with three jets another North Korean icon used to reflect strength and modernity.

The bumper harvest is a common theme in North Korean propaganda and art.

‘Framed by the vapour trail of a trio of jet-planes performing a victory flypast into the sunset, the building stands like a triumphal gateway to some promised land of Socialism with Chinese characteristics.’

Oliver Wainwright, The Guardian, 2003
