Roberto de la Selva
 |
Nicaraguan-born Roberto de la Selva (1895–1957) was an artist who moved to Mexico City in 1921 as a protest against U.S. military occupation.[1] He was an associate of Diego Rivera and the brother of poet Salomón de la Selva.[2][3]
His work may be seen in the Watchung Reservation.
De la Selva studied art at Mexico City’s Academy of San Carlos and apprenticed as a wood craftsman in the town of Apizaco. He worked in both bas relief woodworking and some painting.[4]
