EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, two young men from the historic town of Machico, Madeira, proudly don traditional costumes as they participate in lively street entertainment in the vibrant capital city of Funchal. The men, with their white breeches, yellow pointed caps, and colorful dresses, exude a sense of pride and joy as they connect with the rich cultural heritage of their community. The man on the right holds a brinquinho, a historical and intricately decorated pointed stick, which is a cherished symbol of Machico folklore. Adorned with wooden dolls, bells, and castanets, the brinquinho is shaken up and down, creating a rhythmic melody that invites the group to dance round. The skull-shaped top of the instrument adds an intriguing historical touch to the performance. The men's smiling faces and the lively energy of the scene transport us back in time, offering a glimpse into the rich history and traditions of Madeira. The colorful costumes, the pointed caps, and the brinquinho are all essential elements of Machico folklore, which has been passed down through generations. As the men perform in the bustling streets of Funchal, they not only share their heritage with locals and tourists alike but also contribute to the city's vibrant cultural scene. This photograph is a testament to the enduring power of tradition and the joy of celebrating the past in the present.
