Her works were then similar in style and content to those of her father.  Her early drawings and paintings, often representing peasants and mother and child scenes, are emblematic of her father&#8217;s classicism through the 1920s.  Then, in the 1930s, like her father, she adopts a vanguardist style, influenced by Cubism and Surrealism, which deforms and shatters her figures.  The introduction of this new style, communicative of distress and violence, coincides with the outbreak of the Spanish Civil war in 1936, which the Gonz\u00e1lez family follows closely from Paris.  <a
