With the Catrina "Doña Elegancia," the artist offers a classic and distinguished representation of this Mexican cultural icon. This Catrina wears a striking, formal evening gown with a dark red corset and a beautiful long skirt adorned with red flowers that give it a festive touch.
She wears a wide-brimmed black hat and a very elegant veil or mantilla of the same color and holds a cigarette that accentuates her air of sophistication.
Her face is a skull (calavera) that is artistically made up in the traditional Catrina style, with large eye sockets and a mocking smile, with details painted on the forehead and cheeks that imitate floral or lace ornamentation.
The hands are skeletal, showing the wrist and finger bones, a reminder of their nature.
