More "MOOOO"

Here are more sculptures from the "Cows on Parade" exhibit along the Paseo de la Reforma...








"Somos México" - "We are Mexico"
In the middle is a "trompa"... a spit of meat for making "tacos al pastor".



This one had a headdress made, in part, or corn husks.






















The imagery on this cow includes scenes from both Mexico and Europe.


The Mayan pyramid at Chichén Itzá and the Monument to Independence on one side


 The Roman Colosseum on the other side



The Michelin cow???








This skeletal cow is a tribute to Mexican cuisine.


On its back it carries Mexican dishes such as mole, chiles en nogada and frijoles.


The "Cow Parade" will be on the Paseo de la Reforma until September 1st.
They will go out to pasture in plenty of time for the "alebrijes" to take their place in October.
