| Description |
This extraordinary woman, with a superb deep
red patina quite rare in the art of Jalisco, makes
a gesture apparently associated with worship
and prayer. What does she beseech the gods for?
Would the rewards she would ask be any
different in today's world--those of health,
happiness and long life? The gods have certainly
granted her the last request.
