Photo of an older man in a cap sitting at an outdoor table under a colourful sun umbrella on a campus green. Part of a building with a distinctive large wall mural is visible behind him and behind that another distinctive frescoed building. The nearer mural is part of David Alfaro Siqueiros' famous work 'El pueblo a la universidad, la universidad al pueblo. Por una cultura nacional neohumanista de profundidad universal' (1952-1956). A stylized human figure is reaching out his arms in front of him and holding tools. The figure is also rounded and 3-dimensional on the wall. The gesture somewhat reflects the position of the man at the table, who is facing the same way and has his arms crossed on the table in front of him, looking downwards. The building further away is the famous Biblioteca Central by Juan O'Gorman (1948). Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Mexico City, 13 September 2016. Photo Cindy Kohtala
