Fiestas de Carnaval Montevideo 1942
When they arrived in Latin America, European, African, and Asian people brought with them diverse cultures, politics, and social mores. Festivals and Carnival became the loci around which this diversity of cultural heritage was blended into a rich, harmonious, and popular expression. Julio E. Suárez, the photographer, emphasized that each celebration is a work of art in itself, with its own special dances, costumes, dramas, and music, melding a variety of religions, rituals, and cultures.
