Description
This painting is based on a photo that I took when I visited Patzcuaro for a few days. The island of Janitizio, is where the most famous die de Los Muertos festival is located. . It is a very steep walk and at the top of the island is an enormous statue of José Maria Morelos. Standing 130-feet high over Lake Patzcuaro, the spiraling stairway that leads to the top of the statue tells the hero’s story through sweeping murals the entire way up to the top.
José Maria Morelos was a revolutionary leader during Mexico’s quest for independence and was executed by the Spanish government. Embraced across the country, this statue was erected in 1933 to honor his memory. . I encountered this woman while I was walking up to the top of the hill.
