Day of the Dead
Catrina
with Mariposa
Price $59.95
This Day
of the Dead Voodoo doll calavera is made in honor of Catrina,
made popular by renowned author, journalist and political cartoonist
Guadalupe Posada, (1852-1913). He is credited for popularizing the Day of the
Dead celebrations, especially through the creation of skeletal cartoons that
capture the Mexican attitude towards death. The name
Catrina means "dapper," and she reflects the fashions of the times. I have
recreated this fashionable diva as a Day of the Dead doll calavera that exudes comedic elegance.
