Javier Bueno, a committed republican, became the painter of the political events of the Spanish Civil War. He places himself as the heir of the Golden Age, inspired by the genre scenes of Bartolomé Esteban Murillo and the portraits of Francisco de Zurbaran, in order to highlight, with an economy of means and colors, all the dramatic expression and misery of the victims of Franco's political regime.
