NATIVES RAPA NUI BOYS PLAY FOOTBALL ON EASTER ISLAND
Natives " Rapa Nui" boys play football on Easter Island, 4, 000 Km (2, 400
miles) west of Santiago, October 30, 2003. The ancestors of residents
of Easter Island, known locally as Rapa Nui, carved and mounted the
huge stone head statues staring out to sea that the island is famous
for. Though the island currently belongs to Chile, islanders are
pressuring the government to grant them autonomy, like France did with
Tahiti. NO RIGHTS CLEARANCES OR PERMISSIONS ARE REQUIRED FOR THIS IMAGE REUTERS/Carlos Barria PP03110101

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the vibrant spirit of youth on Easter Island. In this picturesque setting, a group of "Natives Rapa Nui" boys engage in a spirited game of football against the backdrop of the island's iconic stone head statues. Located 4,000 km west of Santiago, Easter Island is renowned for its rich cultural heritage and awe-inspiring archaeological wonders. The descendants of the island's original inhabitants, known as Rapa Nui, have inherited a legacy that dates back centuries. The colossal stone heads carved by their ancestors stand as silent witnesses to their remarkable history. As they kick the ball with enthusiasm and determination, these young boys embody both tradition and modernity on this remote Pacific island. Although Easter Island currently falls under Chilean governance, there is an increasing call from its residents for greater autonomy akin to what France granted Tahiti. This desire for self-governance reflects their deep-rooted connection to their ancestral land and culture. Through Carlos Barria's lens, we are transported into a moment frozen in time - where innocence meets resilience amidst breathtaking natural beauty. This image serves as a powerful reminder that even in the most isolated corners of our world, dreams are nurtured and aspirations take flight. No rights clearances or permissions are required to appreciate this evocative photograph that encapsulates both the present realities and timeless allure of Easter Island.
