Rivera Mual Mug
This was a gift for an ex-pat Detroiter who loved it.
Ceramic mug featuring a depiction of the North wall of Diego Rivera's Detroit Industry murals.
Diego Rivera was commissioned by the Detroit Institute of Arts, with funds from Edsel Ford (the son of automaker Henry Ford), to paint the walls of the institute's garden court. Rivera studied workers at the Ford plant in nearby Dearborn to produce the murals, twenty-seven panels that Rivera completed in nine months, from July 1932 to March 1933. The massive work is considered the finest example of the Mexican muralist's work in the United States, and Rivera thought the Detroit Industry murals to be his most successful work.
Make a complete set by pairing with the matching South wall mug.

These are my favorite set of coffee cups I own the "Diego Rivera Detroit Industry North and South Wall Coffee Cups" from DIA. They are artistically detailed and represent the city of Detroit so very well...
I gave a pair of these to my son and his partner for Christmas and they were very well recieved.
