This photograph was taken in 1971, in the Fundo forestier of Santa Adriana, near to Nacimiento, VIII region of Chile. The photograph was taken by Raymond Depardon, a french photographer and documentary filmmaker. The photograph belongs to the Raymond's collection "Chile, 1971". Raymond took a lot of photographs in Chile that year, because he was interested in the Salvador Allende's government and in the socialist experience. I love this photograph, because represent the experience of fight and organization of the workers. The farmers, for first time in the history of Chile, tried require his rights. The sign shows how the farmers don't accept more exploitation and how they report to his employer. Also, the photograph shows the organization of the farmers through the "Unión Campesina Revolucionaria".
The quality and the resolution of the photograph is very high and the colors are very good.
I think that this photograph can shows the situation of a important period in the history of Chile, especially for the workers.
Wow, I don't know nothing about this work of photography, it's a really important part of us history.
