Guillermina, of the famous Aguilar sisters, from Oaxaca fashions this wonderful Day of the Dead "Frida". The figure is a turn on one of Frida's self portraits. The clay Friday is wearing a traditional dark skirt with navy blouse trimmed in gold. Her hair is set up on her head with a native adornment. In the background is a tree with leaves framing her face. This is a terrific one of a kind piece for collectors of Mexican folk art, the Augilar Sisters or Day of the Dead.
