Summary

Four essays discuss Prometheus, Orozco's 1930 frescoe painted at Pomona College in Claremont, California. As the artist's first work in the U.S., and the first Mexican mural in this country, Prometheus is a landmark in the history of the Mexican mural movement and the art of the 20th century.
