It was commissioned by the general director of Fine Arts, Josep Renau, at the request of the Government of the Second Spanish Republic to be exhibited in the Spanish pavilion during the International Exhibition of 1937 in Paris, in order to attract public attention to the republican cause in the middle of the Spanish civil war.
