Approach the race with determination and optimism, and you'll be well-equipped to cross the finish line with pride. This vibrant tile embodies the spirit of the Day of the Dead (Día de los Muertos), a Mexican tradition observed on November 2nd. During this time, families honor their deceased loved ones by visiting cemeteries, placing offerings of food and personal items, and celebrating together. This practice serves as a way to commemorate the departed and approach death with a sense of humor and celebration, rather than solemnity.
La Catrina, originally created by Mexican illustrator José Guadalupe Posada, has become an iconic symbol of this holiday, representing the Mexican perspective on death as an integral and inevitable part of life. Her elegant portrayal reminds us that, regardless of social status, we are all equal in the face of mortality.
