Belíssimo mural, Eduardo! Cores vivas e bom ângulo de tomada. A cena se assemelha a tantas outras que ocorreram também em nosso continente, a América, onde espanhóis, portugueses e ingleses, principalmente, trucidaram povos e impuseram sua força e seus valores. Nós somos produto disso, não é? Mas o mundo caminha e o importante é que tenhamos consciência do passado para darantir um presente e um futuro menos injustos. Bom trabalho! Abraço! Miguel.

Your photo is quite interesting with good colours and good definition on the mural details. The composition could be better is you cropped or avoided taking on photo the light on the foreground. For the note, well I don’t like it. Saying *** back in the colonial days around the 1500s***, is a very poor and uninformed statement. Just looking at the mural, you could see that the uniforms of the soldiers could not be from 1500s and also in the 15th/16th centuries they could travel with horses on their small ships. I am pretty sure the scene on the mural is more late 19th or early 20th centuty.
