Moggaraz

Moggaraz
Moggaraz is a very pleasant (and touristy) town in the Sierra de Francia, Salamanca Province. All of Its 300 odd inhabitants in 1967 agreed to have their photos taken and large-scale paintings were taken from those photos and placed on the walls of their homes, some years later. Whether you find this strange or superb, it it is certainly different! Whoever pitched this concept to these naturally conservative and cautious country folk must have been a sales genius!

Dimas Sequeira, Schlomo Moichele, Erika Akire, William Sutherland and 14 other people have particularly liked this photo

Oh, this sounds really familiar, I am sure this happened somewhere else, too! Definitely in Europe...maybe I just read about this town. I'll have to think...

Very pretty little street scene, Andy!

I didn't post this here before but I possibly posted it on Pano in the weeks before its demise, Diane. perhaps you are recalling the shots I put there, with a detailed description of what it was all about?

I'm with you there, Gudrun.
And as for my girlfriend! If she had been a resident of Moggaraz at the time you can rest assured that this would NEVER have happened!
