Summary:

This book presents the work of José Ezelino da Costa, a pioneer in recording the social identity of the culture of the Seridó region. José Ezelino immortalized images of relatives and friends, as well as everyday life in society at the time. He was a black, Brazilian man, born in 1889, in the backlands of Rio Grande do Norte, on the Umbuzeiro farm, on the outskirts of Caicó, a city with a predominantly white society. Photographer and musician, he played wind instruments and had a passion for jazz and sacred music. Son of a former slave, he was the first black photographer in the Seridó backlands.
