Export Import, Prague

I've not been able to learn anything about the building where this relief sculpture and its companion piece are located. I did find a photo of this panel on the Web, but it was at a stock-photo site that was, as usual, information free.

 

The panel depicts workers engaged in various types of manual labor. Hence, I think it dates to the interwar period when there was strong sympathy for the labor movement.

 

I'm fond of the second figure from the right. He is paying tribute to the history of glass in what was then Czechoslovakia.
