Description
Two snakes wrapped around a tree, heads at top. A soaring eagle at very top of column. On either side of the tree are figures of Mexican and Chicano heroes, including Cesar Chavez, Emiliano Zapata, a farmworker, Benito Juarez, Miguel Hidalgo, and a scene of the conquest with a mission. "In the original mural Raul Espinoza is the first to use air brush techniques. Salvador Torres experimented with spray can paint, but stops due to inferior paint durabilities. 1991, restoration by Raul Espinoza, and Victor Ochoa." Salvador Torres
