Oaxaca, Mexico, North America. Day of the Dead Celebrations. This boy's facial make-up is representative of an "Angelito", a Little Angel, symbolizing children who die before having their First Communion. He is participating in a "comparsa", a procession of children in costume, to celebrate the Day of the Dead, when Oaxacans honor their dead ancestors.
