This album is the second by Helios Gómez (1905–1956), an Andalusian painter, poster artist, anarchist-communist activist, and writer, renowned as the 'red tie artist'. Gómez began his artistic career within the Spanish anarchist movement, leading to his exile from Spain in 1927. During his time in Europe, he absorbed various artistic influences. Upon returning to Spain in 1930, he engaged with the Confederación Nacional del Trabajo (CNT) and joined the Communist Party of Spain (PCE), believing it to be the most organized force against fascism.
His activism led to an invitation from Soviet authorities to represent Spain at the International Congress of Proletarian Artists in Leningrad, commemorating the 15th anniversary of the Russian Revolution. Between late 1932 and February 1934, Gómez spent approximately a year and a half in the USSR, traveling extensively and gaining insights into Soviet life. He even worked as a laborer in the Kuznetsk factories in Western Siberia, earning the honorary title of 'shock worker' (udarnik).
During his stay, Gómez published his second album, ‘Spanish Revolution’, in 1933, which featured 20 drawings. Half of the drawings (numbers 4 to 13) were exclusive to this album, while the remaining ten had appeared in his first album 'Días de Ira' (Berlin, 1930) or later in 'Viva Octubre'(Brussels, 1935) - sourced from the book 'Romaníes europeos: Vidas más allá de los estereotipos' by Eve Rosenhaft and María Sierra, 2022.
Although Gómez held an exhibition at the Pushkin Museum in Moscow, it was attended only by his close friends. Disillusioned with the Soviet regime, particularly due to Stalinist repression, Gómez left the USSR abruptly, leaving behind 100 original works from his exhibition, which have since been lost. 
Notably, ‘Spanish Revolution’ was published in a limited print run, resulting in minimal exposure among Soviet readers. The only known trace of Gómez's work in the USSR is a postcard featuring his drawings. 
By the way, Gómez’s memoir ‘Dos años entre los bolcheviques’ (‘Two Years Among the Bolsheviks’) was published posthumously in 2022.
