Raul Anguiano Valadez (Mexican, 1915-2006). La Espina (The Thorn), 1959. Lithograph. Ed. 75/150. Signed and dated lower right. A signed lithograph by Raul Anguiano Valadez of his most famous painting, "La Espina" (1952) in which Anguiano presents a Maya woman seated in profile and gouging a splinter from her foot with a knife. Anguiano subscribed to the Mexican pride in indigenismo and faithfully depicted the Maya and other indigenous Mexican peoples. His signature style favored bold geometrical forms and a Cubist interpretation the human figure popularly featured by the Mexican Muralists. He was beloved for such depictions of indigenous Maya women and once stated that he "sought to glimpse the soul of the Mexican people" through his works. Size: 21.5" L x 28.5" W (54.6 cm x 72.4 cm); 23.75" L x 30.75" W (60.3 cm x 78.1 cm) including margins
By age 19, Anguiano moved from his native Guadalajara to Mexico City where he met the legendary Diego Rivera and Jose Clemente Orozco, and he painted his first mural that same year. At the age of 20, Anguiano became the youngest artist included in an exhibition at the famous Palacio de Bellas Artes in Mexico City. He also would teach art at the National Autonomous University and founded the Popular Graphics Workshop. Angiano's work was featured in over 100 exhibitions throughout the world and resides in such esteemed permanent collections as the Museum of Modern Art in New York City as well as the Vatican. Angiano was among the last of Mexico's modern muralists to have worked with Diego Rivera and be influenced by the Mexican Revolution.
Provenance: private Vaqueiro collection, Clayton, Missouri, USA; acquired via descent from grandmother who purchased from gallery in Mexico City that represented Angiano in the 1970s
