Description
-
This commission describes the hardship and the effects of the post- revolutionary war from the Mexican peasant's point of view. It shows men and women marching to go fight in the war. It shows how hard the family are taking it, women and child staring at their family walk away. Women and men were inspired to fight in the war. For a better future, however, the war causes a lot of trauma and damage to the families around them.
