"Semeadores" by Diego Rivera

Subject- Two workers plowing an empty field.
Occasion- A revolution in Latin America where communism was becoming popular.
Audiance- The people of Latin America.
Purpose- To persuad people toward the cause of the communist movement.
Speaker- Diego Rivera was a Mexican supporter of the Communist movement.
Tone- Rivera seems sympathetic toward the workers.

I feel that Rivera was trying to get the viewers of his painting to feel sympathy for the workers. They were faceless, could be anyody, which would not distract the viewer from connecting with them.
