Mexican Dia De Los Muertos Day of the Dead La Catrina Folk Art Figure Sculpture

Located in Studio City, CA

A quite wonderful Mexican Day of the Dead (Dia De Los Muertos festival held throughout Mexico) La Catrina symbolic skeleton figure. La Catrina is the festival’s most recognizable image/figure.
