About El Paraguas
El Paraguas is a card from the Mexican game Loteria. Like bingo, loteria is a classic Mexican board game of chance played with a standard deck of playing cards that have both pictures and names of various objects. As the cantor or caller calls out matched images, players mark them off a 4x4 grid on a board. "The Umbrella" is portrayed in Lotería by El Paraguas. The words "For the sun and the rain" are also inscribed there.
