David Alfaro Siqueiros’s mural, created 1957–1966, captures Mexico’s social upheavals leading to the Mexican Revolution. It vividly portrays societal divisions, with peasants and miners confronting Porfirio Díaz, depicted trampling the Constitution. This work exemplifies Mexican muralism, a movement using public art for social critique.
