Las manos del hombre
The Hands of Man
A paean to human hands and all the things women and men can do with them. A poem of human endeavour and labour, created in a collectivist spirit. A fine piece of government propaganda made at a moment when new rural as well as industrial endeavours promised progress and a better life for all.
