The Legend of Agustín Lorenzo (detail)Diego Rivera
This 1936 fresco dramatizes the legendary outlaw Agustín Lorenzo as a symbol of resistance. Armed revolutionaries clash with government forces, their horses rearing amid smoke and flames. Rivera fuses myth and history, casting Lorenzo as a Mexican Robin Hood whose defiant struggle against injustice became folklore in the national imagination.
