Oaxaca Day of the Dead Altar Marigolds

by Kathy Garrison

Warm golden light streams through high windows, illuminating a vibrant Day of the Dead altar inside a prayer hall in Oaxaca. Layers of bright orange marigold petals cover wooden surfaces, surrounding intricate sugar skulls painted in vivid pinks and blues. Sheen on wax candles and soft focus foliage indicate humid monsoon conditions. Rough stone walls and wooden beams frame the arrangement. Shadows stretch long across the floor as the sun dips below the horizon, casting deep amber hues on textured paper decorations. At the edge, a small hand-painted angel wing rests against a ceramic jar.
