The works which portray history, vary in scale－going from the grand portrayal of historical scenes to personal experiences－and pay tribute to those who sacrificed for the nation and its people.

The bulk of displayed works, occupying nine exhibition halls, are from NAMOC's collection and the rest are from other galleries, such as the museum of Beijing's Central Academy of Fine Arts, and from the artists themselves.

Among the works are many examples of red classics－artworks reflecting revolutionary activities and socialist development under the leadership of the CPC.
