POSADA - ATTACK, 1910-12. A Glimpse into the Mexican Revolution
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print from Granger Art on Demand takes us back to a tumultuous period in Mexico's history - the Mexican Revolution of 1910-12. The image showcases an intricate zinc engraving created by Jos Posada, a renowned artist known for his powerful depictions of this revolutionary era. In this particular artwork, we witness the intensity and chaos of an attack on Mexico City during the revolution. Men armed with rifles and bandoliers storm a rampart, determined to fight for their cause. The scene is filled with action as bullets fly through the air and bodies lay strewn across the battlefield. Posada's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving. From the sombreros worn by these brave fighters to their worn-out clothing, he captures not only their physical appearance but also their spirit of resilience amidst adversity. The presence of a lifeless corpse lying near a bag of money serves as a stark reminder that this battle was fought not only for ideals but also for survival and justice against oppressive forces. Through this mesmerizing piece, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand one chapter in Latin America's rich history - where ordinary men became revolutionaries fighting for change in an era marked by struggle and sacrifice.
