  description Linocut on paper, 11.5 in. x 8 in. Taller de Gráfica Popular, Mexico City, MX. From the portfolio, 450 Years of Struggle: Tribute to the Mexican People / 450 Años De Lucha: Homenaje al Pueblo Mexicano. Barely a quarter of a century had passed since the consummation of Independence, when Mexico was militarily attacked by the United States of America. The United States armies entered the capital of the Republic and only withdrew when, through the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, the United States annexed half of the Mexican territory to their country. Glorious incarnation of the resistance of our people were the cadets of the Military College who fought recklessly in the Castle of Chapultepec against an enemy far superior in number and weapons, and fell, on September 13,1847, bequeathing to the new generations an example of virile patriotism.
