About the Item

A 1944 Social Realist, untitled caricature portrait representing a Mexican labor protest, signed M.S. Rivera. Below the portrait is written a Mexican song or poem relating to labor protests. The first lines of the poem translate as such: "Fat banker who signs checks all day, from the great sympathy that he treasures in his person". This piece could relate to a 1944 controversial water treaty Between Mexico and the United States. On reverse the piece is signed "Rivera Studio, Ave G-426, Tijuana". Image size: 20" x 16". Framed size: 26" x 22". Provenance: Friedlander Collection, Chicago.
