Mao’s quotations were frequently used to adorn porcelain wares. These objects helped to reinforce the importance of Mao’s ideas. The quotation on this cup urges workers, peasants and students to be knowledgeable in military affairs, politics and culture. It also calls upon them to criticise the capitalist class.
