Description

I am not very sure of the dimensions of the logo.

Santiago Dotor, 6 October 1998

When we passed the first anniversary of the Prestige disaster, there was a very large demonstration in the Galician capital, Santiago de Compostela, to mark the anniversary and to protest against the incompetent management of the situation by the Spanish government and Galician autonomical government. The PÚBLICO newspaper published a black and white photo of the demonstration, including flags of the Izquierda Unida (United Left) coalition.

Compared with our image above, the logo is much larger, occupying the field almost totally. Looking at it closely, it's noticeable that the logo is also slightly different from what's currently on our page (besides the size, of course), since it includes something above the fist leg of the "u." Looks like a flag, or a map of Galicia (or a map with a flag), or something like that.
