EDITORS COMMENTS
- This powerful propaganda poster from the Spanish Civil War era, dating back to the late 1930s, is a poignant reminder of the intense nationalistic fervor that fueled the conflict. The image features a striking illustration of La Virgen de la Pilar, or Our Lady of the Pillar, a revered figure in Spanish Catholicism. During the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939), both the Nationalist and Republican forces employed propaganda posters to mobilize public support and galvanize their respective causes. This particular poster, produced by the Nationalist side, underscores the deep religious sentiment that played a significant role in the Nationalist movement. The caption, "Viva Española," translates to "Long live Spain," while "Viva la Virgen de la Pillar" means "Long live the Virgin of the Pillar." The fusion of nationalistic and religious sentiments is a testament to the strong connection between the two in Spanish culture. The image of La Virgen de la Pillar, with her regal bearing and outstretched arms, is a powerful symbol of protection and hope. Her presence in this poster serves to bolster the morale of the Nationalist soldiers and civilians, offering them a sense of divine guidance and support in their struggle against the Republican forces. This historical poster, with its evocative imagery and compelling message, offers a glimpse into the passionate and complex world of Spanish Civil War propaganda. It stands as a poignant reminder of the deep-rooted beliefs and emotions that shaped the course of this pivotal moment in Spanish history.
