Painter Catrin Mexican Folk Art Painter Skeleton Statuette

Jorge Escamilla

(2)

With a nod to José Guadalupe Posada's "La Calavera Catrina", Mexico's Jorge Escamilla creates this unique sculpture. Wearing overalls and holding a roller, the hardworking skeletal painter is crafted of clay and steel wire. The original "La Calavera Catrina" was a zinc etching created by the artist José Guadalupe Posada in Mexico around 1910. Posada created the character, a female skeleton with an elegant hat, as a satirical portrait to lampoon Mexican natives who aspired to European style and denied their own heritage. The catrina has since become an emblem of Mexico's Day of the Dead celebration and a popular folk art subject.

Sunflower Catrina Ceramic sculpture

Angel Ceron Artisan Association

(261)

Elegant Catrina strolls around the park under a wide-brimmed hat, parasol at hand. Artisans from the Angel Cerón Artisan Association conjure her flamboyant appearance inspired by the original work of José Guadalupe Posadas. A renowned author, journalist and political cartoonist (1852-1913), he created Catrina, (meaning "dapper") and her mate, Catrin, as caricature symbols of Mexico's politicians, implying that after all, they too die. Since then, Catrina has become an essential element of Day of the Dead celebrations but without the political underpinnings. She represents Mexico's comedic attitude towards death.

Part of NOVICA's Dia de los Muertos collection.
