Leon Trotsky Painting

Trotsky was an instrumental figure in the Bolshevik movement and a victim of Joseph Stalin’s insatiable lust for power. After Lenin's death Trotsky was exiled by Stalin to Turkey, and after periods in France and Norway, he and his wife, Natalia Sedova, finally settled in Mexico. Whilst in exile Trotsky was critical of Stalin and his imposition of a totalitarian state. Ramón Mercader, a purported admirer, became a frequent visitor to Trotsky’s home, and fatally wounded Trotsky with an ice pick on 20th August 1940. Trotsky died the following day aged 60. A few months earlier, Trotsky wrote, 'I shall die a proletarian revolutionist, a Marxist, a dialectical materialist and consequently an irreconcilable atheist.'
