Petrópolis, located in the mountainous region of the State of Rio de Janeiro, is a city full of History and natural beauty.
Known as the "Imperial City", Petrópolis was the summer retreat of the Brazilian Royal Family in the 19th century.
By car, it is 1h10m from Rio de Janeiro.

I think Camellia is a beautiful flower but a little sad, as if it wanted to be a rose but couldn't be... 💐

This is the Church of Nossa Senhora da Lapa dos Mercadores, in downtown Rio de Janeiro.
Inaugurated in 1750, it was erected by the Portuguese merchant brotherhood of the place, where there was already an oratory.
It's beautiful!

This painting by John Peter Russell (above) is considered the most faithful to the true image of Van Gogh.

Below, a photo from 1887 in which Van Gogh (third, from left to right) is believed to be with other artists, including Paul Gauguin.
