Description

The postcard issued by the Propaganda Commission of the Generalitat of Catalonia and designed by Martí Bas is part of a collection of ten color postcards created in 1937. These postcards, with a modern aesthetic and a direct message, aimed to strengthen the morale of the rearguard and project an image of resistance and hope. Their careful design and use of color make them outstanding pieces of war graphic art. This document reflects the sophistication of republican propaganda and its desire to connect with citizens through art. It is also an example of how Catalan visual culture put itself at the service of the defense of democracy and the European values ​​of freedom and solidarity.
