Chico Rei, King of the Congo
Painting by Márcio Cintra from the series Rhythm, Colors and Faith of Congado Mineiro. Representation of Chico Rei, the character who gave rise to the congado festivals in Minas Gerais. Congolese is brought to Brazil as a slave, conquers his manumission, manages to acquire a gold mine and starts to buy captives to free them. In his honor, the freedmen called him king, and the other slaves celebrated him with music and dance in the traditional festivities for Nossa Senhora do Rosário, a saint who is also linked to the origin of the congadas.
