Sueno by Diego Rivera

April 24th, 2009

Diego Rivera, a 20th century Mexican painter, created a mural in the 1940s for the Hotel Prado in Mexico City located in the front of the Alameda Park. In the painting, Diego Rivera described a dream including all of the historical figures of Mexico from the conquista to the revolution. He created a dream, but he also introduces a large debate in regards to the people of Mexico. Should the culture be native or imported (indigenous, Spanish, North American, or French)?
