December 8, 2023 - Hundreds of people gathered in Guernica, Basque Country, to form a human flag in solidarity with the Palestinian people, as air raid sirens filled the air.
The town of Guernica became symbol and a rallying cry against war crimes and the slaughter of civillians after German and Italian planes bombed the town for Franco's fascists in 1937, during the Spanish civil war, killing hundreds of innocent civillians. [video]

This painting is by Montserrat Aleix (Palamós, Catalonia 1908 - Mexico DF 2004), a Catalan woman who had to go on exile after the fascists’ victory in the Spanish Civil War, in 1939. She moved to Mexico, where she lived for the rest of her life.
She started to paint when she was 64 years old, in a characteristic naïve style that mixed Catalan and Mexican influences.
This painting and some more of her work are kept at Museu de l’Empordà in Figueres (Catalonia).
