La Pasionaria, the Passion Flower, is a dedication to the 65 Glaswegians from the International Brigades who fought the fascists in the Spanish Civil War of the late 1930s.
La Pasionaria depicts Dolores Ibárruri, a communist politician who was also known by the powerful moniker.
She founded a women’s anti-war movement, rescued over a hundred starving children from a small mining town, and delivered inspirational speeches during her incredible life.
