EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back in time to the early 1900s, offering a glimpse into Mexican culture and artistic expression. The etching, titled "Skeletons calaveras riding bicycles ca 1900" is a mesmerizing piece by renowned artist José Guadalupe Posada. In this intriguing artwork, we witness an unconventional scene where skeletons or calaveras take center stage as they ride bicycles with effortless grace. The intricate details of the etching showcase Posada's mastery of his craft, capturing every bone and joint with precision on the zinc sheet canvas. Posada's prints were widely recognized for their social commentary and satire during a period of political unrest in Mexico. Through his artistry, he skillfully blended traditional Mexican imagery with modern elements like bicycles to create thought-provoking compositions that challenged societal norms. Measuring approximately 6 1/16 x 10 9/16 inches (154 x 268 cm), this print showcases Posada's ability to convey movement and emotion through static images. It serves as a testament to his enduring legacy as one of Mexico's most influential artists. As we admire this remarkable piece from the Liszt Collection, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its historical significance in preserving Mexican cultural heritage. This artwork reminds us that art has the power to transcend time and connect us with different eras while sparking our imagination and inviting contemplation about life itself.
