Proletarian Hand Méndez made most of his prints to call attention to social and political causes. Here he has surrounded a worker's hand with the last names of political martyrs in the United States and Mexico who were honored as heroes in left-wing circles all over the world. At first glance, the hand appears be an X-ray image, but closer examination reveals that the finger bones are hanged prisoners and the wrist bones are portraits of some of the persons named in the background.
