Step into the United Nations headquarters in New York and you'll be greeted by something truly special: "The Golden Rule" mosaic. 🌍
Created in 1985 and gifted by First Lady Nancy Reagan, this massive artwork is based on Norman Rockwell’s iconic painting. It captures people of all backgrounds standing side by side—kind of like the Avengers assembling for the greater good. 🤝
Etched in gold across the mosaic are the words: "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." These simple, timeless words remind us that respect and empathy can build bridges across borders and cultures. ✨ Captured by CGTN’s Zhang Jin in 2019, the mosaic’s vibrant hues bring Rockwell’s vision to life.
Whether you're a student tackling global issues, a young entrepreneur exploring new markets, or just someone who loves art and travel, "The Golden Rule" speaks to all of us. It’s a powerful reminder that unity starts with small acts of kindness. 🎨
Next time you’re exploring UN headquarters (virtually or in person), take a moment to look up and reflect on Rockwell’s vision. After all, treating others the way we want to be treated is the ultimate global cheat code for harmony! 🔑
