This card came from "martinha" as a prize of a lottery! It's a beautiful moonlight with the statue of Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro.
"Christ the
Redeemer is a statue of Jesus Christ in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; considered the
largest Art Deco statue in the world and the 5th largest statue of Jesus in the
world. It is 39.6 metres (130 ft) tall, including its 9.5 metres (31 ft)
pedestal, and 30 metres (98 ft) wide. It weighs 635 tonnes (625 long,700 short
tons), and is located at the peak of the 700-metre (2,300 ft) Corcovado mountain
in the Tijuca Forest National Park overlooking the city. A symbol of Brazilian
Christianity, the statue has become an icon for Rio de Janeiro and Brazil. It
is made of reinforced concrete and soapstone, and was constructed between 1922
and 1931." In: Wikipedia
