A large group of adults and children stand or sit in front of an arched doorway in a stone structure at Guadalupe Ocotán, Jalisco, Mexico. Two people stand in the doorway, each holding one side of a rectangular framed object. The people are most likely Wixárika. The scene probably documents a celebration of the Catholic feast of Our Holy of Guadalupe on December 12
