This image was recently painted by Alvaro "Neco"
Bordagorry on a wall located on the Montevideo street named after
Carlos Gardel, the greatest tango singer of all time. Our connection to the earliest memories of candombe is through paintings that were created almost a century ago, paintings by Pedro Figari. The relationship between music and painting has probably best been described by Ruben Rada's beautiful song, Candombe Para Figari.
