This paper traces the development of a body of drawings by José ClementeOrozco known upon their commission as Los Horrores de la Revolución(1926-1928), and their relation to his murals at the Escuela NacionalPreparatoria, in light of the political pressures of the post-revolutionaryregime in Mexico, and the demands of the New York art market.
