Loteria: Art, Culture, Riddles

I picked up a poster in Santa Fe last year depicting the original 54 Mexican Loteria cards. Below are a few:

Loteria%20Bell.jpg  Loteria%20Boot.jpg  Loteria%20Deer.jpg 

Loteria%20Drunk.jpg  Loteria%20Flag.jpg  Loteria%20Flamingo.jpg

Loteria%20Moon.jpg  Loteria%20Pear.jpg  Loteria%20Watermelon.jpg

The riddle for the Moon is "El farol de los enamorados," or "The light of the enamored ones."
