SECTION DEVOTED TO THE WORKS THAT REMAINED PENDING AND WERE NOT EXECUTED BECAUSE OF THE HALTING OF THE WORKS IN 1957.
First we will focus on the murals by the painter Delhy Tejero, which she developed for the side walls of the assembly hall and which were to be reproduced in mosaic by the artist Santiago Padrós, who had already executed, within the Universidad Laboral, the mosaics of the exterior niches of the church and of the interior of the church lantern. The murals represent the Sciences and the Arts.
We also present the design of the baldachin that the architect Luis Moya drew up to be placed over the four columns of the church, an unpublished design located through research in the archive of the ETSAM library in Madrid, where the architect's legacy is deposited. The design presented here had been wrongly filed within the project for the Colegio de Santa María del Pilar in Carabanchel, Madrid.
We also develop the chapter on the two amphitheatres in the north-east area, which were left unfinished at the time and were finally completed from 2005 onwards. They are currently used by students taking the courses formerly known as the commercial teaching qualification (profesorado mercantil).
Finally, we present what Luis Moya noted down on a drawing of the interior of the church concerning the planned interior decoration in mosaic and painting, which in the end also remained unfinished
