The Benito Quinquela Martín Terminal serves as the cruise ship terminal for the port o fBuenos Aires. This mural is located in the lobby and seems to be accessible to the public...although that accessibility may depend on whether staff are present to service a cruise ship in port.
The mural depicts many men at work along the port...loading and unloading, repairing and cleaning. The title translates to Day of Work and a sign on front of the mural informs us that the artist is Benito Quinquela Martín for whom the terminal is named and that it is the artist's largest mural and dates it to 1938.
