Prometheus, Mexican fresco in Frary Dining Hall, Pomona College, Claremont, US

Prometheus is a fresco in the Frary Dining Hall at Pomona College in Claremont, United States. Four connected panels above a fireplace form the composition, showing the Titan reaching for fire while figures around him respond to the scene.

The fresco was commissioned in 1930 by architect Sumner Spaulding and professor José Pijoán for Pomona College's new men's dining hall, with help from journalist Alma Reed. Orozco lived on campus for three months and used students as models, while students raised $300 of his $2,500 fee. Completed in June 1930, it was the first modern fresco in the United States and the first major work by a Mexican muralist there.

The mural's setting in a dining hall means students eat beneath the gaze of figures receiving the gift of fire. The work's title comes from the Greek Titan who stole fire for humanity, and the crowd around him shows mixed reactions, some welcoming the gift and others rejecting it.

The fresco covers the wall above the fireplace at the north end of the Frary Dining Hall refectory, with the main panel facing the open eating area and two side panels flanking it. Because it stands in a working dining hall, viewing depends on the hall's opening hours during term; the college's department of art and art history can confirm when the room is open to visitors.

Jackson Pollock visited the work during the summer of 1930 and later called it the greatest painting in North America. His assessment helped establish the standing of this technique among American artists.
