Calaveras: macabre Mexican skeleton prints produced for the Day of the Dead
"Calaveras (Spanish for skulls) are produced in Mexico every year for the Day of the Dead (November 1 and 2). Works made by celebrated Mexican printmakers Manuel Manilla (1830-1895) and JG Posada (1852-1913) have been collected into a book published by Redstone Press to coincide with the opening of two major exhibitions of Mexican art at the British Museum."
