mexican rebozo

Her face framed by her traditional rebozo, a woman from the Purépecha community poses with a bouquet of nochebuenas (poinsettias). She has just bought them at the local market, along with some fruit. Detailed with admirable precision, this vivid crayon and pencil portrait is the work of talented Mexican artist Angel del Palacio.

Titled "Señora con flores de nochebuena" in Spanish

Arrives with a protective acetate removable cover.

Angel del Palacio mixes crayons and colored pencils on paper to create this expressive portrait of an elderly Purepecha woman as she covers her face from the bright light of the sun. She folds her rebozo over her head and wears a warm sweater in the chill morning in Michoacan. The composition is matted, mounted on a pinewood stretcher and covered with a protective pane of glass.

Titled "Mujer de suéter gris" in Spanish.
