To the left and right of the studio booth appears a sketch of the mural "El hombre en la máquina del tiempo" (Man at the Machine of Time), which Diego Rivera painted in 1933 for the Rockefeller Center in New York. When Rivera refused to paint over the portrait of Lenin, the work was destroyed in February 1934. That same year the artist created a second version, which can be found in the Palace of Fine Arts in Mexico City.
