Día de los Muertos Altar
The image depicts a vibrant and colorful altar set up for Día de los Muertos, a traditional Mexican holiday honoring deceased loved ones. The altar is adorned with bright marigold flowers, candles, and several decorated skulls, known as calaveras, which symbolize death and rebirth. These skulls are intricately painted with black and white patterns, sitting atop a purple cloth draped over the structure. Brightly colored flowers and additional candles enhance the festive and commemorative mood of the setting. The use of purple in the decorations typically symbolizes pain, suffering, grief, and mourning, while the bright orange of the marigolds is meant to guide the spirits to their altars with their vibrant color and scent. This setup is a typical example of how the Day of the Dead is celebrated with a mix of somber reflection and joyful remembrance.
