This image depicts a monstrous figure with a distorted face, claw-like hands, and a bulbous form. The figure is heavily shaded against a dark background, emphasizing its menacing expression. It is depicted in a hunched posture with contorted features, conveying a sense of aggression or intimidation. The use of strong lines and dramatic shadows enhances the intensity of the image.

El acaparador (The Monopolizer)

Ramón Puyol, Altavoz del Frente

1936

This is a drawing of a surreal figure with exaggerated features. The figure has oversized fists raised above its head, and its facial expression is exaggerated with a long nose and prominent eyes. The character's attire includes symbolic elements such as a hammer and sickle, stars, and an image within its torso depicting a smaller figure sitting on a mound. The overall composition is dynamic and filled with a sense of motion, suggested by the posture and flowing lines of its clothing.

El izquierdista (The Leftist)

Ramón Puyol, Altavoz del Frente

1936

The image contains flowing lines and exaggerated curves, depicting energy and movement in an abstract manner. A figure sits cross-legged at the center with swirling hair-like forms rising above its head. The figure holds two cylindrical objects with the letter "V" on them, and has distorted facial features with wide eyes and an open mouth. The overall composition suggests a cartoonish, expressive character, possibly in the midst of making a loud noise or exclaiming. The figure's shadow enhances the dynamic appearance of the artwork.
