MAESTRAPEACE, corner view, mural on The San Francisco Women's Building, 18th and Valencia Streets

Corner view of four-story, symmetrical white stucco building covered with vibrant mural celebrating women from various cultural and ethnic groups and across time. The top half of both sides of the building feature the faces of two women in profile facing a central figure. The central figure on the left is Rigoberta Menchu with two outstretched hands. She is above vibrant ribbons of color surrounding female figures and other symbolic imagery. The figure on the right is a pregant woman with red and yellow butterfly wings looking up with folded hands raised over her head. Ribbons of blue water flow down below her into the bottom half of the mural, which consists of ribbons of color, two open hands, and other symbolic imagery.
