Agustina González López, also known as "La Zapatera" (born 4 April 1891 in Granada; died 1936 in Víznar, Granada province) was a Spanish writer and artist who belonged to the so-called Generation of '27. She contested the Spanish parliamentary elections in 1933 with her own party and was executed by Nationalist forces in 1936 at the beginning of the Spanish Civil War. Today she is considered a pioneer of Andalusian feminism and an avant-gardist, both politically and artistically.
