Photo by @christian_foto (Christian Rodriguez) on assignment for @ナショナルジオグラフィック in Montevideo, Uruguay. ​Laura Viana, a dancer from the group "Ecos de Palermo" dances during the first day of the "Llamadas". During the "Llamadas", meaning street parades, the comparsas (performers) and lubolos (people painted with black and white face paint) walk and dance. The names of the comparsas refer to African countries like Senegal, Uganda, Nigeria, among others.
Members of the drum section wear "alpargatas" or shows resembling sandals worn by slaves, and long black stockings meant to imitate the skin of black people. The stockings have white ribbons around the calves to symbolize lashes the slaves received.
Candombe is an Uruguayan music and dance that comes from African slaves. It is considered an important aspect of the culture of Uruguay and was recognized by UNESCO on the list of Intangible Cultural Heritage. This Uruguayan music style is based on three different drums: chico, repique and piano drums. ​Carnival in Uruguay is recognized as the longest in the world lasting approximately 35 days.
