Abstract. The article analyses the image of the Chinese revolutionary Hsing Ping-wu - a personage of Vs. Ivanov’s story "Armoured Train 14-69" (1922). The paper aims to reveal interrelation of tradition and innovation in formation of this artistic image. Scientific originality of the study lies in the fact that the story "Armoured Train 14-69" is for the first time examined taking into account development of the "Chinese" theme in the Russian literature. The findings indicate that Ivanov has created a fresh, vivid image of the "red" Chinese participating in the Russian revolution. The writer continues the tradition established already in the XVIII century: when it comes to the Chinese, the Russian reality (in our case, revolution and war) is considered through the lenses of the Chinese philosophy.
