Foreigners, Masters (Los extranjeros, amos), plate 12, from Franco's Spain (La España de Franco)

Raúl Anguiano was a Mexican painter and muralist whose practice spanned figurative painting, printmaking, and large-scale public commissions from the 1940s onward. Working in the postwar period, he developed a style rooted in Mexican social realism and indigenous cultural forms, creating works that addressed labor, community, and national identity. His compositions typically featured bold, gestural brushwork and a richly modulated color palette that drew from both European modernism and Mexican artistic tradition.
