Juan Torres' Retablos

Updated October 5, 2007

Juan Torres' favorite medium is multi-media. The figures are ceramic as are the flowers in the hands of the figures.  The retablo is wood, painted, with silk flowers accents added. Each of these boxes is covered with removable glass (which was removed for better picture quality).

DESCRIPTION

These extraordinary painted ceramic skeletal figures are accented with silk flowers and sit in a hand painted box (retablo) by master artist, Juan Torres of Capula, Michoacan. The image of a skeletal wedding couple given to a married couple means, "May your love last forever--May your love last beyond the grave."
