Mariano Rodriguez painted the oil on canvas piece, Mujer con gallo (Mujer y gallo) or Woman with Rooster (Woman and Rooster) in 1941. The rooster is a common theme in the exhibit "Mariano: Variations on a Theme | Variaciones sobre un team," because it symbolized prosperity. Across all of his paintings, the rooster is proud and territorial so people have viewed it as Mariano Rodriguez's alter-ego.
