DAY OF THE DEAD ITEMS

     This photo features two Day of the Dead figures. Day of the Dead is on November first in Mexico and people believe on that day the spirits of the dead come to visit the living. People on that day go to the graveyard to clean up the graves and tombs of their departed family members and a lot of skull center folk art is produced including painted sugar skulls and figures from every day life such as these. A bride and groom on bikes. This was a center piece at my niece's wedding.
