在毛泽东百年诞辰纪念日前夕,一座巨大的毛泽东青铜塑像,矗立于毛泽东纪念馆旁的广场上。江泽民总书记专程赶到韶山,亲自为铜像揭幕。 韶山毛泽东铜像作为改革开放以后第一次经中共中央批准建立的大型铜像,作为毛泽东时代的一个历史纪录,具有非同以往的历史价值和艺术价值。 On the eve of Mao’s centenary of birth, a huge bronze statue of Mao Tse-tung stands on the square beside the Mao Zedong Memorial Hall. General Secretary Jiang Zemin made a special trip to Shaoshan and unveiled the bronze statue himself. As the first large-scale bronze statue approved by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China after the reform and opening up, the bronze statue of Mao Zedong in Shaoshan was a historical record in the era of Mao Tse-tung, with both historical and artistic values.
