EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in Mexican history - the Cry of Dolores, Miguel Hidalgo's call to revolt on 16 September 1810. The detail of Juan O Gorman's mural from the 20th century showcases the artist's mastery in depicting this significant event. In the image, a crowd gathers as Father Hidalgo passionately addresses them, urging them to rise up against colonial rule and fight for independence. The early morning light illuminates their faces, reflecting both determination and hope. Men from all walks of life stand united under the banner of revolution. Juan O Gorman's modern art style adds depth and intensity to this historical scene. His use of social realism brings forth an emotional connection between viewers and these brave individuals who fought for freedom. The black Madonna flag serves as a symbol of resistance against oppression. The mural also pays homage to Mesoamerican heritage with its inclusion of mesoamerican motifs, reminding us that Mexico has a rich cultural history that predates colonization. This print is part of Bradley Smith's Carousel Collection and offers an opportunity to reflect on Mexico's struggle for independence during the Mexican War of Independence. It serves as a reminder that revolutions are born out of ordinary people coming together with extraordinary courage to challenge injustice and forge their own destiny.
