Catrinas Parade In Mexico

Portrait of a woman characterized as a Catrina during the Catrinas Parade in Mexico City, which began at the Angel of Independence and ended in the Zocalo of the capital on the eve of the Day of the Dead in Mexico. According to data from the National Institute of Anthropology and History, La Catrina, originally called La Calavera Garbancera, is a figure created by Jose Guadalupe Posada and named by the muralist Diego Rivera. ''Garbancera'' is the word by which the people who sold chickpeas and who, having indigenous blood, pretended to be Europeans, whether Spanish or French (the latter more common during the Porfiriato) and who denied their own race, heritage and culture.
