    Description

    La Catrina “, created by the Mexican painter, illustrator and cartoonist José Guadalupe Posada, was originally called“ La Calavera Garbancera ”. This word came from the chickpea sellers, who, being poor, appeared to be rich and wanted to hide their indigenous roots. It was born as a critique of classism in Mexican society. Its meaning is that death makes us all equal, rich and poor. La Catrina is currently one of the most popular and representative characters in Mexican culture and it is inconceivable to think of a Day of the Dead without her.
