About the piece
Created by artist-explorer Hércules Florence in 1828, this watercolor depicts a majestic Genipavera tree dominating the skyline of Diamantino in Mato Grosso. Beneath its spreading branches, a group of figures in traditional attire processes through the settlement for the Feast of the Holy Spirit, providing a serene and historic glimpse into early 19th-century Brazilian life.
