Description
Engraving alluding to the 1st of May.
Divided into two horizontal halves, the upper half of the engraving shows graphic elements referring to the theme of the 1st of May on a metallised background. There, similar to a poster torn in half and framed in green, you can read "1º MAIO" in large black writing. Underneath the letters AIO of the word MAY is written "DAY OF".  The word FIGHT" follows underneath. Separated by a tear in the paper, it is still possible to read "TODOS AO", although this has been partially removed.
A green stain fills the centre of the torn poster.
The lower half of the print is coloured gold and subdivided into two equal parts. In the left-hand square is a pixelated photograph of a pubis. In the square on the right, the author has stylised buttocks in black with the number three painted in yellow.
