A CHANCE TO THE PAST, a photo from Goias, Center-West

Photographer's Note

When I arrived in Goiás City I thought I would find many ruined houses, but I was surprised the old architecture of the city had been or was being restored and the beauty was evident.
Here we have another façade, maybe in eclectic style, being restored, the last touch was the white adornments, not finished yet, and the painter was in the door.
At left side we have a colonial house selling art crafts and at right side and art decó façade. These houses are in the same street I posted before, you can see the poems of Cora Coralina in the walls too.

Quando cheguei à cidade de Goiás pensei que encontraria muitas casas arruinadas, mas fiquei surpreso ao notar que praticamente todas elas ou estavam restauradas ou estavam nesse processo, deixando em evidência toda essa beleza.
Temos aqui mais uma linda fachada, creio que em estilo eclético. A casa estava sendo pintada e os detalhes em branco eram o toque final, ainda não concluído. Vemos até o pintor na porta.
Do lado esquerdo temos uma amostra de arquitetura colonial com artesanato à venda e no lado direito uma fachada em art decó. Essa é a mesma rua da foto anterior, reparem, como as paredes das casas tem um azulejo com um poema de Cora Coralina.

Hello Jorge,
Regardless of their style or influence these small pastel coloured buildings remind me of small town Cape Verde. The painter at work makes the building – and the photo – look nicer.
Best regards,
Gert

Hello Jorge,

The pale blue façade of the central building and its dark blue shuttered windows matches the sky. Good sharpness and framing. Tfs!

Hi Jorge,

It is better that the buildings can be renovated instead of being destroyed. The point of view is showing the details of the facade of the building. The light is making the colors to stand out. Have a nice day.

Hello Jorge,
Restored and freshly painted. Lovely motifs.
Very charming houses. Luckily not much high rise (perhaps in another part of town).
Best regards, Paul

Hi Jorge,
It is a beautiful house. The stylish aspects have been emphasized by the renovation. The next one is not less interesting. Great sunshine emphasized the subtle carvings on the walls.
Very well done,
M

Hello Jorge,

This is a very attractive little building. There is no doubt that the white window surrounds, decorative patterns and dark blue contrasts make this stand out from the rest. (A very creative artist has made the patterns ready for painting!)

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hello Jorge,

These houses are really charming. And we see that they are recently renovated. Beautiful Art Deco. I like these dark blue window shutters. And yes, I see these poems.

Best regards MAlgo
