This mosaic was finished at the same time as the rest of the square in 1993. 100,000 individually cut pieces of hand-painted glass were cut and painted in China specifically to be used in the construction of this mural here in Chicago. The mural depicts the history of Chinese immigrants in the U.S as well as Chinese philosophies and social hierarchy.
