Dante probably never imagined having a dog like this, but he might think it fits in his vision of the afterlife. The multicolored winged creature is handcrafted from copal wood by Eugenia and Roberto Sosa of Oaxaca. The artisans also meticulously hand-paint the exuberant colors and designs on this original alebrije sculpture.
The wings are removed to protect them for shipping.
