Customer Reviews

Hispanics of Achievement...

In the center of the book are copies of Diego's paintings: Calle de Pueblo, Workers' Meeting, Zapata Buried, and more. Describes colorfully Rivera's relationship with Frida Kahlo and the ways that Rivera mixed art with politics. The Medallion Edition is really attractive.

fantastic book

This is a fantastic book for young people interested in Diego Rivera, art history, politics and/or hispanic culture. I like that this book tells the story of the man, and how all the interconnected parts of this person add up to an extraordinary life.
