Animal Farm 1 Part 1

Sheep hold up their slogan "Four legs are good, two legs are bad." The big fat pig with four legs can be seen at a glance that it is the protagonist leader who drives the two-legged manor owner out of the manor and directs everything. The "two-legged bad" chicken stood aside in fright, afraid that it would be beaten into a two-legged enemy group, because it could not determine whether it belonged to two legs or to four legs. The two sheep held up battle slogans with great vigor and full of vigor, thinking: Everyone knows that our ancestors have been four-legged for generations. Determined to be a four-legged cow, he was playing the piano and singing in celebration of victory. But I didn't expect that I would have another end. The little mouse felt a little frightened, thinking that although I was also four-legged, I did not work all day, and I secretly did some unseemly things, and I was afraid that I would end up like the owner of the manor (hiding next to people). The mighty little piglet knows that he is the seedling and successor of the future owner of the manor, and although the man has been knocked to the ground, he still has a life for him at present. --Zhou Dongshen

Animal Farm 1 is a foreign literary theme taken from the allegorical novel of the same name by British writer George Orwell. When Zhou Dongshen created this work, he transformed the language image into an image, used a lot of symbolic symbols, and gave it a relevant meaning. According to George Orwell's novel of the same name, the animals all have names: the large, fierce-looking pig in the center of the picture is Snowbaw, one of the leaders of the Animal Farm Revolution; the donkey and the horse on the left, Benjamin and Bowser, who are also heroic fighters of the station and made outstanding contributions to the war; the short, fat pig between Snowbow and Benjamin, cheering with his hands raised, is Squeilla; the three dogs representing the army, namely Brubyl. Jesse and Pingche are escorted by mr. Jones, the original farmer; the two sheep holding banners with the slogan "Four legs are good, two legs are bad" represent the ignorant masses who blindly follow Snowboy; on the right side of the picture there is a cow playing the piano to celebrate victory, and the crow Moses is standing on the horn on its head; the small winged hen in the lower left of the picture represents the farmer; the rat that makes the gesture of escaping at any time is a wild animal that needs to be domesticated.

The four fables of Animal Farm 1 are also a narrative, an absolutely universal way of expression and a mode of observing the world. Fables are not limited by time and geographical conditions, and readers in different eras, different nationalities and different cultures are extremely prone to resonance when facing fable works. The meaning of literary works is never a single solidification, and good novels should have a more profound and universal meaning, and the same is true of artistic creation. Orwell used the allegorical narrative method to embody the universal understanding of human beings through simple and understandable stories, while the printmaker Zhou Dongshen kneaded literature, artistry and politics together through engraving knives, and presented the story of animals celebrating the victory of the "Cowshed War" to the reader in a subtle and vivid way, which is more intuitive and witty than literature. It can be seen that Zhou Dongshen is not only an international printmaker who integrates the characteristics of Chinese and Western printmaking art and has made outstanding contributions to the development of printmaking art in the world, but also a very thoughtful artist. - Yunsha West River
