EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Mexican culture and tradition through the intricate depiction of Posada's skeletons of tradesmen. Dating back to the 1910s, this piece showcases a tailor, shoemaker, hat maker, carpenter, and bill sticker in their skeletal form - a powerful symbol of death and rebirth.
The vibrant colors of blue and red add a striking contrast to the stark white bones, creating a visually stunning image that draws viewers in. Each trade is represented with meticulous detail, from the tools of the carpenter to the thread and needle of the tailor.
Posada's endpapers are renowned for their macabre yet whimsical portrayal of death, making them an iconic part of Mexican art history. The fusion of skull motifs with everyday professions serves as a reminder that death is an inevitable part of life for all individuals.
As you gaze upon this mesmerizing print, you can't help but be transported back in time to early 20th century Mexico. The craftsmanship and creativity displayed by Posada truly stand out in this unique piece that continues to captivate audiences over a century later.
