Why is Chairman Mao's portrait renewed every year?

it's going to be the 11th National Day. At 11:00 p.m. on September 27, 2018, in the light rain, with the trucks and cranes carrying the new portraits driving out of the Tiananmen Gate Tower, the annual project of replacing the new Chairman Mao's portrait of the Tiananmen Gate Tower to welcome the national day will be started.

The crane moved the old portrait away from the city building, and the staff began to clean up the hanging place of the portrait of the city building, and then hung the new portrait. The whole installation process was about one hour.

It is understood that on the eve of the National Day every year, the city building of Tian'anmen will replace the portrait of Chairman Mao with a new one, and the old one, which has been slightly faded by the wind and sun, will be removed. The painter will deal with the old portraits, carefully draw Chairman Mao's new portraits on the treated drawing board, and then replace the old portraits of the previous year on the eve of the next national day.
