Book of Life Premiere Countdown: Day T-minus 4: La Catrina

Nothing but bones, yet wearing a french hat.

La Garbanzera started as a social critique, drawn by one José Guadalupe Posada, on those who rejected their race, their origin, the blood of the Mexican; and instead wanted to live by the European lifestyle, to taste the luxury. At the expense of the lower class of the people, BUT WE’LL GET TO THAT NEXT MONTH. IDK MAYBE.

La Catrina, later dressed and given such name in a Posada fan-art by Diego Rivera was later popularized as the representative image of death in Mexico because god knows we love flamboyant shit like that.

To date, the character’s been ingrained deep, and has inspired multiple artisanal figurines, drawings and paintings, cut papel picado arts and many more parafernalia, and has also featured prominently in many a Mexican animations as well.

the fact that there’s only about 5000 people who’ve reblogged this scares me. That means that less that 5000 people know where these come from.

I feel old…

So you’re thinking: "It can’t be that old"?

Why, you are correct!

It’s even older.
