Llanto Por La Muerte De Ignacio Sánchez Mejías
Federico Garcia Lorca () was the jewel of the Generation of 27; a group of poets and other artists which included in its broadest sense Luis Buñuel, Salvador Dali, and the torero Ignacio Sánchez Mejías. It was the death of this literary bull fighter that inspired Garcia Lorca to write one of the greatest poems in the Spanish language.

He also had a deep affinity for both music and literature. He was very close to Manuel de Falla. He spent a year in the US, mostly in New York, He also visited Vermont and Cuba.
