Catrina

Catrina, also known as La Calavera Catrina, is a famous Mexican illustration created by artist José Guadalupe Posada and later popularized by Diego Rivera. It depicts a elegant skeleton wearing fancy clothing and a hat, symbolizing the idea that death is the great equalizer, unaffected by social status or wealth. Catrina is a prominent icon of Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead), representing the celebration of deceased loved ones with respect, humor, and reverence. It reminds us to honor life and acknowledge mortality with dignity and cultural pride.
