"La defensa de la barraca" (The Defense of the Barrack) is a significant painting by the Spanish artist Antonio Fillol Granell, created in 1903. This work is renowned for its social realism and is considered one of Fillol Granell's most emblematic pieces, reflecting his commitment to portraying the struggles and injustices faced by the lower classes in Spanish society at the turn of the 20th century.

The painting depicts a dramatic scene in which a group of impoverished Valencian farmers defend their humble dwelling, known as a barraca, from an assault by the Civil Guard. The tension in the scene is palpable, with the farmers, including men and women, showing a mixture of fear, defiance, and desperation as they confront the authorities. The work's composition, use of color, and emotive portrayal of the characters contribute to its powerful impact, making a poignant statement about the plight of the rural poor and the social tensions of the era.

Antonio Fillol Granell, born in Valencia in 1870, was a prominent figure in Spanish painting, and his works often addressed themes of social criticism. "La defensa de la barraca" is a prime example of his artistic approach, combining technical skill with a profound social commentary. The painting is not only a work of art but also a historical document that offers insight into the socio-political context of early 20th-century Spain.

Today, "La defensa de la barraca" is held in high regard by art historians and critics for its historical significance and its contribution to the genre of social realism in Spanish art. It remains a powerful symbol of resistance and the struggle for social justice, resonating with audiences well beyond its immediate historical context.
