A muscular man lies lifeless as fellow laborers mourn and continue bearing heavy burdens. This mural (1935–38) is a solemn tribute to those who lose their lives in the struggle for survival and productivity. It speaks to sacrifice, exploitation, and the human cost of progress in Antioquia’s industrial transformation.
