Day of the Dead Altar in Puebla Temple Courtyard

by Mason Peters

Honey-colored light streams through a large window, illuminating a traditional Mexican altar dedicated to the Day of the Dead. The display rests on a low wooden table within the stone courtyard of a temple in Puebla. Bright orange marigold petals scatter across the surface, intermingled with rows of white sugar skulls decorated with colored icing. Condensation beads rest on the nearby glass pane, blurring the view of the fading sky outside. The turn of the seasons is evident in the cool, crisp quality of the light and the moisture on the window. Small paper cutouts hang in the background, while the warm glow of the setting sun highlights the texture of the sugar and the rough stone walls surrounding the arrangement. one drop of water slides slowly down the glass.
