Colonial MusiciansLuis Alberto Acuña

This 1950s mural segment captures a lively ensemble performing in a pastoral setting. Dressed in 18th-c. attire, the musicians play violin, flute, tambourine, and drum, infusing the scene with rhythm and harmony. Their presence symbolizes colonial ideals of refinement, while the surrounding fauna—deer and birds—evoke the imagined harmony between human culture and the natural world.
