This photo appears in an out of print book published in 1971. It is common in parts of Michoacan Mexico for Purepecha women to decorate their hair with ribbons for festivals. This photo was probably taken somewhere near the town of Paracho. The seated woman holds on her lap a fancy rebozo of a type woven in nearby Ahuiran. The ends of the rebozo are decorated with embroidery floss and looks like feather work.
