Titled *L'agricultura tot per al Front* ("Agriculture Everything for the Front" in English), this Catalan lithograph focuses on farm labor and machinery rather than soldiers, and its subject tags point to the tractor as the image's central symbol. The Confederación Nacional del Trabajo, the anarchist-leaning labor federation, printed it in Barcelona sometime between 1936 and 1939, while the Republic fought Franco's Nationalists. In Republican Catalonia and Aragon, many farms had been collectivized by their workers in 1936, and posters like this one urged rural workers to keep food and supplies flowing to the front.
