Stake attention in this memory
This nighttime image captures two individuals in elaborate traditional ceremonial attire, viewed from behind, standing in the Plaza de Armas in Pisac, Peru. Both wear white, pointed headdresses and patterned ponchos or shawls in earthy tones with geometric designs. Affixed to their upper backs are large, ornate rectangular panels richly decorated with gold and silver embroidery, beads, and sequins; one panel clearly displays an image resembling the Virgin Mary. Suspended from their lower backs are light-colored, furry appendages resembling lamb or alpaca pelts, adorned with numerous multi-colored yarn pom-poms in reds, greens, yellows, and blues. The individual on the right also wears a black facial mask. To the far left, a person in a dark jacket and white sneakers is partially visible. In the background, a tall, grey stone statue of a robed figure, identifiable as Inca Emperor Pachacuti, stands prominently under a dark sky. A large green tree is visible behind the figures. Bright artificial street lighting creates several diagonal light flares across the frame. The ground beneath the individuals appears to be paved stone.
