An artist that I admire

His name is Jose Guadalupe Posada he was a Mexican artist how lived during 1852 and 1913. He was kwnoun for his ilustrations, engravings and cartoons, his works ilustrate the popular culture of mexico, and mixed with social critique. He was considered a popular artist which showed since everyday life to the political affairs of Mexico.

His best known work was asosiated whit the popular celebratione knonw as Dia de los muertos, which is celebrated on 1 and 2 November. that days
people share with their dead in cemeteries. This artist celebrated dead,
using as reference the skull. To my is interesting that conception of the dead, and the relation whit the life. And he was creator of a new eaesthetics which makes a mixed the dead and the culture of his country.
 
To my his best work was the Catrina or Calavera garbancera, this was a copperplate engraving. In this work he refers to a type of person who appeared to be rich still poor, because of that the skeleton is only dressed with an elegant hat.
 
He is one of my favorite artist, I hope that enjoy his work.
