Its headline speaks straight to the reader: "Campesino! Tus enemigos te hicieron trabajar de sol a sol," or "Peasant! Your enemies made you work from sunup to sundown." The poster was issued in Madrid by the Ministry of Public Instruction between 1936 and 1939, while the Republic was fighting the military rising led by Franco. Its subject is hands, a common emblem of labor in Republican propaganda, used here to link rural toil to the government's cause. Posters like this were aimed at the countryside, where many farm workers had long labored for landowners under harsh terms.
