Calaveras are more popular than ever!

A colorful skull decorated with flowers that Mexican children eat does not leave tattooed and tattooed people indifferent.

At all times civilizations buried (or did not bury) their death and meditated in one way or another: the pharaoh ended his reign in a pyramid, the Viking earl on a drakkar with his weapon on fire, and the Mexicans meditate by arranging a fiesta around the grave of their loved ones with music, food and Skulls.

These candies are very commonly used in funeral rites in Latin American culture, and a whole bunch of these cute skulls can be seen on Day of the Dead. On this day of meditation they are placed around the graves, but the Mexicans also bring them back throughout the year. This festival is celebrated every year, from late October to early November, and seems more festive here than All Saints' Day.

The Mexican skull is popular because with all the colorful decorations on it, you can almost forget that someone is dead. She even looks pretty cute, and that hasn't escaped the artists. If you look on the Internet, you will see how popular it really is. After reading a serious advertisement (yes, it is possible!) Of the beer brand Cubanisto (whose logo is skull), we learn that he has inspired artists for several centuries. Also found in the cartoon Monster High: Skaris, Horror City in the form of the character Skelita Calaveras. And tattoo artists, always looking for new designs to embroider on leather, could only grab hold of skull to definitely establish its worldwide popularity.

Here are some interpretations done by French tattoo artists!
