The iconic Catrina figure was created by Mexican artist José Guadalupe Posada in the early 20th century. Posada's calaveras (skeletons) depicted Catrina as a dapper female skeleton, symbolizing the Mexican celebration of Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead). Later, the image was popularized and transformed by artist Diego Rivera in his mural "Sueño de una tarde dominical en la Alameda Central," where Catrina became a prominent cultural icon.

The feast day of Saint Juan Diego in on December 9.
It is one of several artistic expressions performed by Mexican artists. For example, besides being a muralist, Diego Rivera was also a painter and sculptor. Several murals were commissioned by the Mexican government; most of them can be found on government buildings and structures, such as in the Mexican National Palace, or the Mexico City International Airport. All of them try to depict Mexican history and culture, from the ancient Aztecs some 700 years ago to present-day Mexico (circa 1950, when those murals were painted). Also, most of them have socialist motifs, showing the class conflict; this is because Diego Rivera and most muralists at the time, sympathized with socialist ideals brought by the Russian Revolution.
