Portuguese Girls - Carrying Tradition, Bread, and Lots of Fun!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this vibrant snapshot from Tomar, Portugal, we witness a captivating display of cultural heritage. These young girls are not just carrying trays; they are carrying the essence of their community's history and traditions. With tabuleiros adorned with symbols representing the Holy Spirit – a dove, a crown, loaves of bread, paper flowers (often field poppies), and corn – these girls become walking works of art. Each tray matches their height perfectly, making them look like living sculptures in motion. The atmosphere is filled with joy as the colorful decorations catch the sunlight on this beautiful day. The scent of freshly baked bread wafts through the air as these girls proudly parade through town during Festa dos Tabuleiros - a festival that celebrates Portuguese culture at its finest. This print by Ardea Picture Library captures not only an exquisite moment frozen in time but also showcases how tradition can be passed down from one generation to another. It reminds us that our roots shape who we are and should be cherished. So let's raise our own imaginary tabuleiros to celebrate these remarkable young women who carry more than just trays – they carry pride in their heritage and spread happiness wherever they go!
