Description: Ex-Voto Man Gives Thanks for Finding the Mule Mexican Retablo Tin Sign Folk ArtThis 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 man and his son walking with a mule, bringing it back. The Virgin of Juquila is in the sky, looking down on them.The words are loosely translated as follows: “Thanks to Virgin of Juquila, that we were able to find my mother-in-law’s mule and that we were able to bring it back. Manuel and son. Oax. Mexico 1960.”The tin sign measures 8-1/4 inches across x just about 6 inches in height. There is a small hole at the top with a string attached – all ready for you to hang.This is an original piece of artwork, bought from the artist's representative in Mexico City. The date of creation is not known as the artists who do this type of work sometimes use a historic date to show context for the scene created. Sometimes the artists and their families hold on to works for many years before making them available for sale so it is impossible to say when it was created. Sometimes they make available pieces as they are created.The artist intended irregularities, uneven edges, slight bends in the tin, some tears, holes, rust, scratches and paint splotches.Our inventory 143 Vermont Eye Candy’s fine print We offer combined shipping if it is feasible.
