An idealized image of Mao and Zhou Enlai sitting down on Tian'anmen Square in Beijing, having a friendly and peaceful conversation with Red Guards. On 1 October 1966, during the celebration of the founding of the People's Republic, Mao and Zhou did leave the balcony of Tian'anmen Gate to sit on the square with the Red Guards. But in reality, they were accompanied by staff members and surrounded by bodyguards.
