More Dias de los Muertos Pictures
After I went to the Harlingen museum and took the pictures featured in the previous post, I went to the South Texas Museum of History and took the pictures you can see immediatley below.

Here are some "Catrinas" on display. They were first created in the early 1900s by a Mexican cartoonist called Posada. They were meant satirize the wealthy, frivoulus class. A catrin is a dandy, and a catrina is a female dandy.









Some details from an altar done in remembrance of a local art student.

This was a painting done on butcher paper and mounted on one of the walls next to an altar.

This was a wall drawing in the display at the Museum of South Texas History.
