Abstract

Geographically the region comprising the provinces of Tras-os-Montes and Alto Douro (Portugal) and Zamora (Spain) shares of common ancestral rituals and unique, despite the political boundaries, diluted nowadays as a result of integration into the European Community. We intend to address the concepts already explored "Sacred" and "Profane" in this case seem to be antagonistic, but interdependent, small rural communities in Portuguese and Spanish. The concept was explored and described through two oils on canvas, designed by Luis Canotilho, based on the exploratory "Winter Festivals in Tras-os-Montes and Alto Douro" and "Cloaked Invierno Zamora" and religious expression which is a Catholic pilgrimage of "Lady of Nazo", near the town of Miranda do Douro.
