{"product_id":"jose-guadalupe-posada-el-purgatorio-artistico-relief-print","title":"José Guadalupe Posada — El purgatorio artístico | Relief Print","description":"\u003cp\u003eBeneath a heading flanked by two cloaked skeletons with scythes, a crowd of skeletons sits in a sea of flames among dark rocks, each still at its trade: one holds a painter's palette and brushes, one hugs a double bass, one grips a saw, and others raise a cleaver and a jug while rows of skulls look on. Below, eight skulls posed with the tools of their trades head columns of verse, from mason and barber to bookbinder and blacksmith. The heading translates as The Artistic Purgatory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe original: relief-printed broadside, between 1890 and 1909, Library of Congress.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJosé Guadalupe Posada (1851\/52–1913) was a Mexican printmaker, born in Aguascalientes, who learned lithography and engraving as an apprentice to José Trinidad Pedroza. After drawing political cartoons and running a print shop in León, he moved to Mexico City in 1888 and worked for the publisher Antonio Vanegas Arroyo, producing thousands of illustrations for broadsides, songsheets and cheap books. His calaveras, lively skeletons dressed for every trade and class, made the point that death takes everyone; the best known, La Calavera Catrina, was later taken up by Diego Rivera and became a figure of the Day of the Dead. His prints are held by the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Art Institute of Chicago and the Cleveland Museum of Art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrinted as a museum-grade giclée on Hahnemühle fine art paper using 12-ink archival pigment printing.
