EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and evocative print captures a moment from the tumultuous Spanish Civil War (1936-1939), depicted in a drawing by Carlos Saenz de Tejada. The image, originally published in the magazine Vertice in March 1938, shows the first gallops of conflict as children are caught up in the chaos of war.
Set against the backdrop of Monistrol de Montserrat, Spain, this drawing is a poignant reminder of the impact that war has on innocent lives. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring to life a scene filled with emotion and history.
As we gaze upon this vertical artwork housed in the Library of Montserrat Abbey, we are transported back to a time when Spain was torn apart by political ideologies and internal strife. The figures of children running amidst the turmoil serve as a stark contrast to their surroundings, highlighting the loss of innocence that comes with conflict.
Through this piece of art, we are reminded of the importance of preserving history and learning from past mistakes. It stands as a testament to both the artistic talent of Carlos Saenz de Tejada and the enduring legacy of those who lived through one of Spain's darkest chapters.
