EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported to the enchanting region of Alentejo in Portugal, where a horse pilgrimage takes place. The image captures the essence of horsemanship as an expression of heritage, culture, and faith through this unique form of travel. The horse people featured in the photograph embody a deep connection with their equine companions as they embark on this sacred journey. With devotion etched on their faces, they honor their traditions and pay homage to their ancestors by partaking in this age-old ritual. Viana do Alentejo serves as the backdrop for this remarkable event, its picturesque landscapes adding an ethereal quality to the scene. As these riders traverse through the Iberian Peninsula's stunning countryside, one can almost feel the spiritual energy that permeates every step taken by both man and beast. This pilgrimage is not merely a physical endeavor but also a profound spiritual experience. It symbolizes unity with nature and reverence for higher powers. Whether it be Jesus Christ or Our Lady who guides them along their path, these faithful pilgrims find solace and strength within each stride. Mauricio Abreu masterfully captures this momentous occasion with his lens, allowing us to witness firsthand the beauty and significance of such traditional festivities. This awe-inspiring photograph invites us to reflect upon our own heritage while igniting a desire within us to explore new travel destinations that hold cultural richness at its core.
