Description
"Tells the story of how the amusing calaveras--skeletons performing various everyday or festive activities--came to be. They are the creation of Mexican artist José Guadalupe (Lupe) Posada (1852-1913) ... [and] have become synonymous with Mexicos Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) festival. Juxtaposing his own art with that of Lupe's, author Duncan Tonatiuh brings to light the ... life and work of a man whose art is beloved by many but whose name has remained in obscurity"--Amazon.com.
