I think i've found out the name of the lady in this years red lantern poster! if i'm right her name was hu die and she was a film star from china in the 1930's. the time when shanghai was know as the paris of the orient.... hu die was the most famous film star of the time and trained as an actress at the china film school, as opposed to most actors, who came from traveling acting troupes.... i posted this years red lantern poster on the blog today and i hope everyone likes it! the artwork was done by the lovely gwena levasseur who has done a fab job. this week i'll start telling you a bit more about the market and introduce you to some of the stallholders. until then...
