MAESTRAPEACE, detail of lesbian couple, mural on The San Francisco Women's Building, 18th and Valencia Streets

Detail of mural featuring two dark-haired, women embracing. The woman on the right is smiling and the woman on the left kisses her on the cheek. To their left is a South Asian deity wearing a three-pronged crown and ornamental earrings and jewelry. There is an ornate bronze arch over all three figures. The background features the names of women on flowing bands of color. There is a quetzal bird in flight over the top left of the bronze arch. Bottom half of the image features a woman wearing a white head covering and white dress. She holds an infant, tugging at her head covering in one arm, and paints a female deity in red below her.
