Those Who See (S)

In June 1931, two months after the proclamation of the Second Republic in Spain, the Virgin appeared to two boys in Ezquioga (Basque Country). After that, there was a spectacle of collective visions, trances and ecstasies that eventually congregated over 80,000 people in a single day. Among the prophecies, one said that in Spain there would be a war between Catholics and non-Catholics. In the build-up of this phenomenon, photography played a leading role.
