Central to the composition is a vibrantly decorated skull, adorned with intricate patterns and multiple hues, primarily red, blue, yellow, and white, typical of this Mexican celebration. Surrounding the skull are numerous lit candles providing a warm, soft glow, enhancing the intimate and reverent ambiance of the scene. Additional elements include a variety of fresh flowers, particularly marigolds, known as "cempasúchil," used to honor the dead and guide their spirits.
