Text on the archival label attached to the back of the print: ‘The tank man’. Tiananmen Square, Beijing, China. June 4, 1989. “In June, 1989, following the Beijing massacre, a man stepped into the path of a row of tanks leaving Tiananmen Square and into the history books. It was an unexpected act of defiance. Courageous too. More than thirty years on there’s still a great deal we don’t know: what became of the man, why he was carrying two shopping bags, and the nature of his exchange with the tank driver. One day I hope we’ll know more.” — Stuart Franklin Please note: The product images you see here are photographs of the actual prints for sale.
