Description
This is a propaganda woodblock print created just after the Agrarian Reform Law of 1950. The print depicts a ‘speaking bitterness’ session. The gesture of pointing towards the accused was a highly popular motif at the time. Woodblock prints were a cheap, easily reproducible medium that could be seen by many people.
