EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Broadside: Skull Sale, c. 1890" transports us back to a bygone era of Mexican artistry. Created by the renowned Jose Guadalupe Posada, this print measures 35.2x24.7 cm and is housed in the prestigious San Diego Museum of Art. Posada's masterful technique shines through in this piece, as he skillfully captures the macabre subject matter with intricate detail. The image showcases an array of skulls and skeletons arranged on a newspaper-like background, evoking both curiosity and intrigue. The use of newsprint as the canvas for this lithograph adds another layer of depth to its meaning. It symbolizes how death permeates all aspects of life, even within the pages we read every day. As we gaze upon this artwork, our imaginations run wild with questions about its origins and purpose. Was it created as a commentary on mortality? Or perhaps it served as an advertisement for some peculiar event? Regardless of its intended message or function, "Broadside: Skull Sale" remains a hauntingly beautiful testament to Posada's artistic prowess. Its timeless appeal continues to captivate viewers today just as it did over a century ago when it was first printed. Thanks to the generosity of Forrest D. Colburn, who gifted this remarkable piece to the San Diego Museum of Art, we have been granted access to experience firsthand one artist's unique perspective on life and death in late 19th
