Title:	La Gaceta Callejera: Manifestacion Anti Clerical (The Street Gazzete: Anti Clerical Manifestation)
Artist:	Posada, Jose Guadalupe (Aguascalientes, 1852 - Mexico City, 1913)
Date:	c. 1895 (Arsacio Vanegas Arroyo Edition: 1943)
Medium:	Original Engraving on Type Metal
Publisher:	Arsacio Vanegas Arroyo
Printer:	Arsacio Vanegas Arroyo
Note:	Jose Guadalupe Posada: The father of Mexican printmaking, Jose Guadalupe Posada was born in Aguascalientes in 1852. As a child he assisted an elder brother who was a school teacher and an uncle who was a potter. In 1868, he was apprenticed to a local printmaker and publisher, Jose Trinidad Pedroza, who specialized in lithography. Posada's first prints are in this medium.
	In 1872 Pedroza opened a second shop in Leon de los Aldamas in the state of Guanajuato and left Posada in charge of it. Posada bought the shop in 1876 and made a comfortable living in this city with both commercial and religious art assignments. He also taught lithography techniques at a local secondary school.
	Jose Guadalupe Posada moved to Mexico City in 1888 and within two years had become the chief artist for Antonio Vanegas Arroyo, a prominent publisher of illustrated broadsides, gazettes, song books, chapbooks and other popular forms of illustrated literature. At this point Posada completely abandoned lithography in favor of engraving on type metal, a process that produces results in relief similar to that of a woodcut. He used this method for his many engravings until about 1900, when he turned to etching upon zinc plates. All of Posada's now famous prints were produced for his publisher, Arroyo, and he continued to work closely with him until his death in 1913.
	Posada's prints cover an amazing range of imagery. National events, disasters, miracles, abnormalities, executions, illustrations to popular songs (corridos), broadsides and street gazettes (gaceta callejera) cover a large portion of his artistic oeuvre. As well, his notorious 'Calaveras' have permanently been placed at the summit of Mexican artistic expression. By means of the Calaveras (Spanish for skulls or skeletons), Posada mimed practically every human folly. In a very strong way, Posada is to Mexico what Daumier, Goya and Hogarth are to their countries. Masters of the succeeding generation, such as Rivera and Orozco, were deeply influenced and indebted to Posada's art.
	A note on impressions of Posada's prints: All original Posada engravings are scarce. First edition impressions of Posada's prints are next to impossible to acquire. As they were printed upon the cheapest wove papers used for popular broadsides, songsheets and street gazettes the vast majority simply disintegrated. The few remaining examples accompanied by text are now in the collections of mostly public or national museums. The first posthumous edition of original Posada engravings was published in Mexico City in 1930 by Frances Toor and Pablo O'Higgins, entitled, Mongrafia: Las Obras de Jose Guadalupe Posada. A second edition of original Posada engravings was then issued by the grandson of Posada's actual publisher, Arsacio Vanegas Arroyo, in 1943. Entitled, Posada: 36 Grabados, these engravings, most of which were not published in the Mongrafia, were printed upon coloured wove papers from the original Arroyo workshop which were quite similar to the papers used for the initial, first edition impressions. This original engraving hails from this 1943 set. Even prints from this set are listed as very scarce.
	A word should also be said about the titles printed with Posada's posthumous impressions. As most dealt with topical events of the day, the publishers of both posthumous editions had to rely upon the memories of others to ascribe titles to the songs or events portrayed. Mistakes were not uncommon and when a discrepancy occurs with the scholarly research detailed in the text below I have noted it. *

Note:	Gaceta Callejera: Manifestacion Anti-Clerical is illustrated on p. 71. The authors, however, state that the real title to this engraving is 'Continuacion de las manifestaciones anti-reeleccionistas' ('Continuation of the anti-reelection demonstrations') and that it portrays the demonstrations against the Mexican President, Porfirio Diaz, and his bid for reelection. As one can see, these 1892 demonstrations were met with police brutality. As well, this engraving was originally printed upon two plates and formed a dyptich. At some time the plates became separated. This was originally the right side of the composition. This particular engraving is printed upon wove paper as published by Arsacio Vanegas Arroyo from the original Posada plate for the portfolio entitled, Posada: 36 Grabados in 1943.
