Neruda, Pablo. José Venturelli [il.]. "28 de enero". (28th January). 1st edition. Santiago de Chile. Published by the Comisión Nacional de Prensa, Cultura y Propaganda del Partido Comunista, 1947?.

28 pages. 26 x 35 cm.
Dedication handwritten in green ink from Pablo Neruda to his friend, President Salvador Allende: “ Para mi querido Salvador Allende, con la amista incondicional y a toda prueba de este humilde poeta de Temuco, que le canta a la Patria, con toda su alma de chileno. Un abrazo de Pablo Neruda, 1969”.
There is a bloc of drawings by José Venturelli and text by Pablo Neruda in homage to the victims of the massacre of Bulnes Square, in Santiago de Chile, on the 28th January 1946. Six workers who were demonstrating in the square were killed and many others were injured. José Venturelli’s drawings capture the repression and the victims’ fall at the hands of the soldiers. Neruda’s text accompanies the illustrations. Kept in a red leather and cardboard box. In very good condition.
