This is a bold red-and-black poster in a woodcut style. A man in the center strains to pull a thick rope, leading the effort. Beside him, a woman also pulls the rope. Behind them, other workers pull a heavy cart. Across the landscape, teams of laborers dig, haul, and wheel materials. Red trucks and tractors move along roads and embankments, and a river cuts through the composition. The background shows cultivated fields, mountains, power lines, and a long procession of workers carrying tools and flags. A roadside banner in the distance reads "大干快上建设大寨县" (Go all out and quickly build Dazhai counties). Along the bottom, a bold red Chinese slogan reads "大搞农田基本建设 为普及大寨县而战斗" (Vigorously develop basic farmland construction; fight to popularize Dazhai counties). The phrase "请张贴" appears at the lower margin.
