Ceramic Statuette Vessel Day of the Dead Mexico, "Lord of the Dead"

Angel Ceron crafts a faithful replica of a ceremonial bowl found in the Zaachila archeological site of the state of Oaxaca. Crafted of ceramic, it features Mictlantecuhtli, Lord of the Dead, striking a rather coquettish pose. Respresented as a skeleton, the Lord of the Dead is revered throughout most of Mexico's pre-Hispanic cultures as one of the most powerful deities.
