David Alfaro SiqueirosEmiliano Zapata, Original Social Realism Painting1958
1958
About the Item
Artist: David Alfaro Siqueiros (1896-1974) Mexican
Title: Emiliano Zapata
Medium: Pyroxylin on Wood Panel, Signed Lower Right
Size: Unframed 35” x 49”, Framed 39” x 53”
Year: 1958 - 1959
Siqueiros painted a vivid study of the Mexican Revolutionary, Emiliano Zapata Salazar, in preparation for his large mural, Del Porfirismo a la Revolucion in which three famous revolutionaries carry a dead worker, elements of the workers’ armed struggle and the decline of Porfirismo is depicted. The mural is shown in a purpose-built exhibit in Mexico City.
Zapata was a leading figure in the Mexican Revolution who was assassinated (1910–1920). In this striking work, Siqueiros memoralizes Zapata using his bold, socialist realist style. The powerful use of gold, pink, red and purple symbolize the royal stature of the legendary revolutionary. His strong features and sword are used to evoke the stature of this historic figure. Siqueiros’ use of pyroxylin paint allowed him to use the thick paint to sculpt the surface of the wood panel. The Study of Emiliano Zapata was exhibited in the Museum of Latin American Art, Long Beach, California from 2004 -2006, on loan from the current owners.
Exhibited at the MoLAA (Museum of Latin American Art) August 2005.

Dimensions: Unframed 13.5" x 13.5" Framed 19.5" x 16"
