More about Trotsky in Mexico, in the style of Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera

A richly detailed, highly saturated oil painting, in the style of Diego Rivera and other Mexican muralists, depicts Leon Trotsky, a thin white man with a dark beard and round glasses, seated at a wooden desk with a neat stack of papers in front of him, writing with a dark pen held by his right hand, his hands and pen illuminated, he is wearing a dark brown suit jacket and waistcoat, a white shirt, and a dark red tie. He looks out at the viewer with a serious expression. To his left, Frida Kahlo, a woman with dark braided hair and a vivid red mouth, stares at the viewer, partially obscured by a dark green parrot and tropical plants. To his right, a dense crowd of figures, including men, women, and children, of varying skin tones and wearing sombreros and other peasant attire, marches forward, led by several men holding a red flag with a yellow hammer and sickle and the letters "P.C.M", and a cross, and a sign that reads "TIERRA Y LIBERTAD" (Land and Liberty).
