Probably 1936 Unsigned / Undated / Unknown edition print with an image created in solidarity with the struggles of the Socialist parties of the Spanish Civil War against Nationalist forces led by General Francisco Franco. Lydia Gibson (1891-1964) was an American socialist illustrator who contributed work to The Masses, The Liberator, The Workers' Monthly, New Masses, and other radical publications. In conjunction with her work with The Masses, Gibson met and worked with many other prominent political artists of the day, including Boardman Robinson, Art Young, Hugo Gellert, and political cartoonist/ Communist Party USA functionary Robert Minor (whom she eventually married).
