The Walls of Wuchang Spooky Picasso’s famous Girl with a1926. Wuhan is in lockdown. Fourteen years ago, its heroes toppled Chinas last emperor, but at great cost. Patriots became politicians. Reformers became warlords. Now at Wuchang, the ancient walled city anchoring the metropolis to the Yangtze, they fight to the death.
