Man, Controller of the Universe or Man in the Time Machine - Diego Rivera
The mural is a recreation of Man at the Crossroads, which was commissioned by Nelson Rockefeller for the Rockefeller Center. Rockefeller had the original destroyed when Rivera refused to remove a portrait of Lenin from the mural. In Man, Controller of the Universe, Diego Rivera presents a myriad of images, including those of Leon Trotsky and Lenin. All of these images represent the state of the world in the 1930s.
