EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in Mexican history during the 1930s-40s. Titled "Members of the National Synarchist Union, Mexico" it showcases a group of individuals who were part of a controversial political movement. The National Synarchist Union was established in May 1937 by Catholic activists who vehemently opposed the leftist government led by Lazaro Cardenas. The image portrays a sense of unity and determination among these members, as they stand together with their flag held high. Their attire reflects the fashion trends of that era, while their serious expressions hint at the intensity and passion behind their cause. It is important to note that this movement aligned itself with clerical fascism and falangism, ideologies associated with extreme right-wing Roman Catholicism. The photograph serves as evidence of the political divisions within Mexico at that time. Taken from "The Wind that Swept Mexico: The History of the Mexican Revolution of 1910-1942" this print offers us a glimpse into an era marked by social unrest and ideological clashes. It reminds us how historical events shape nations and societies, leaving lasting imprints on collective memory. Preserved in private collection archives, this image continues to provoke contemplation about past struggles for power and differing visions for Mexico's future.
