EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a haunting scene from the Mexican Revolution circa 1910. The etching, created by the talented artist Jose Guadalupe Posada, captures the intensity and turmoil of this historical period. The focal point of the image is a hanged man, suspended in mid-air, symbolizing both tragedy and resistance. The composition exudes an eerie atmosphere with its dark tones and intricate details etched onto zinc sheet measuring 7 1/2 x 3 3/8 inches (19.85 cm). Posada's prints were known for their powerful social commentary, often depicting scenes that shed light on political injustices or societal issues. This particular piece serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during Mexico's fight for independence. Printed as a proof by Jean Charlot, this artwork holds immense historical significance and artistic value. It invites viewers to reflect upon the struggles faced by those involved in the Mexican Revolution while appreciating Posada's skillful craftsmanship. As we gaze at this thought-provoking print, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand one of history's most transformative periods through artistry that continues to resonate today.
