Description: Ex-Voto “Asking for Wife to Not Burn Dinner” Mexican Signed Retablo Folk Art Tin SignThis ex-voto is a handmade wall hanging. This piece of folk art gives thanks in words and picture and is all hand painted directly onto the tin. The artwork shows a woman deeply engrossed in a telenovela (soap opera) playing on the TV. Meanwhile, dinner is burning behind her. The Virgin is watching over her.The words are loosely translated as follows: “Virgin of Guadalupe, I ask you that my wife Romina pay more attention to the meal as she always burns the beans and soup because she is watching the telenovelas.” The tin sign measures 11-1/4 inches across x just about 9-3/16 inches in height. There is a small hole at the top ready for a string and easy hanging.This is an original piece of artwork, bought from the artist's family in Mexico City. The piece of tin used is not rigid. There may be light and camera shadows showing in the photo of the back of the tin. Because this is a handmade piece of art on a piece of scrap metal and because of the type of art, the artist intended irregularities, uneven edges, slight bends in the tin, some rust, scratches and paint splotches.
